Quiet as the Wall
Style: Kalimba night

[Verse 1]
The radiator clicks so soft against the wall tonight
Behind the floral curtain all the world has gone to rest
Donald, you are wrapped in warmth and gentle amber light
Every hush around this room was made to keep you blessed

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes, the house is breathing slow and low
Nothing in this room will ask you to be anywhere but here
So let the quiet carry you to where the soft dreams go

[Chorus]
Donald, sleep, the night is holding you so gently now
Warm and small beneath the ceiling, safe from any storm
You are loved beyond whatever words could ever quite allow
Donald, rest here where it's tender, rest here where it's warm

[Verse 2]
The click behind the curtain hums a tune too small to name
Somewhere far away the wind is turning, but it can't get in
You are curled up like a secret, safe from anything like blame
Nothing has to happen now, no reason to begin

[Bridge]
Sleep can be a small warm room where nothing needs to change
Hold that thought like it's a coal still glowing after dark

[Chorus]
Donald, sleep, the night is holding you so gently now
Warm and small beneath the ceiling, safe from any storm
You are loved beyond whatever words could ever quite allow
Donald, rest here where it's tender, rest here where it's warm

[Outro]
The radiator clicks its last soft click against the wall
And Donald, you are held here, softer than a curtain's fall
