Soft Against the Glass
Style: Vibraphone drift

[Verse 1]
Out beyond the glass the small wings settle slow and soft
Nothing out there wants to wake you, nothing calls you off
They only came for warmth the way you came to me
Close your eyes now, let the quiet lift you up aloft

[Chorus]
Elise, my love, the night has come to hold you gentle
Every worry of the day was never really essential
You are warm and you are safe beneath this roof of trees
Rest now, Elise, and let your breathing be your only ease

[Verse 2]
One small light left burning low to guide the tired things home
Everything that flutters finds a place to land alone
You have found your place already, curled beneath the sheet
Nothing in the dark tonight was ever meant to roam

[Pre-chorus]
Hear how quiet all the wings have grown against the pane
Feel the hush that settles soft like some slow gentle rain
Nothing needs to happen now except you drifting deep

[Chorus]
Elise, my love, the night has come to hold you gentle
Every worry of the day was never really essential
You are warm and you are safe beneath this roof of trees
Rest now, Elise, and let your breathing be your only ease

[Bridge]
Sleep is just a small light glowing steady through the dark
Something soft that never asks for more than you to rest

[Chorus]
Elise, my love, the night has come to hold you gentle
Every worry of the day was never really essential
You are warm and you are safe beneath this roof of trees
Rest now, Elise, and let your breathing be your only ease

[Outro]
The wings outside have folded now, the glass has gone to still
Sleep, Elise, and know you're held, and know you always will
