Thick White Flakes
Style: Clarinet nightlight

[Verse 1]
Thick white flakes are settling soft on the red brick sill tonight
Behind the frosted glass the whole wide world is turning quiet and white
You are warm beneath the blanket, safe from every bit of cold
And nothing out there in the dark can dim your gentle light

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the hush come falling slow and deep
The house is holding still around you, breathing soft while you sleep
So let your busy little thoughts go drifting, drifting into

[Chorus]
Darren, Darren, hush now, close your eyes
There is nowhere safer than right here where you lie
Sleep is coming gentle as the snow along the sill
You are loved beyond the reach of any darren skies

[Verse 2]
The frost is drawing pictures on the window, pale and slow
Every flake that falls tonight has somewhere soft to go
And so do you, my darling, wrapped in warmth from head to toe
With nothing in this whole wide world that you will ever owe

[Chorus]
Darren, Darren, hush now, close your eyes
There is nowhere safer than right here where you lie
Sleep is coming gentle as the snow along the sill
You are loved beyond the reach of any darren skies

[Bridge]
Rest your small hand quiet against the fading light
The brick stays warm beneath the frost, and so do you tonight

[Chorus]
Darren, Darren, hush now, close your eyes
There is nowhere safer than right here where you lie
Sleep is coming gentle as the snow along the sill
You are loved beyond the reach of any darren skies

[Outro]
The flakes are settling softer now, the glass has gone to white
Sleep well, my darren, held here safe and warm all through the night
