Wool and Streetlight
Style: Music box

[Verse 1]
Threads of wool are catching every light outside the glass
Soft and slow the whole wide world is letting evening pass
Nothing needs to move tonight, no reason left to rush
Just your breathing in the dark, so gentle and so hush

[Chorus]
Enid, close your eyes and let the night come drifting in
Nothing far away tonight is worth the worrying
You are held here safe and warm, however small you seem
Enid, let the quiet carry you to sleep and dream

[Verse 2]
Streetlight settles gold and slow along the window seat
Wrapping round you soft as wool, from your head down to your feet
Every little sound outside has softened to a hum
You have nowhere left to be, no waiting left to come

[Pre-chorus]
Somewhere out beyond the glass the whole world dims its glow
Down inside this quiet space there's nowhere you need go
Just this warmth and just this hush, and sleep beginning slow

[Chorus]
Enid, close your eyes and let the night come drifting in
Nothing far away tonight is worth the worrying
You are held here safe and warm, however small you seem
Enid, let the quiet carry you to sleep and dream

[Bridge]
Even when the light moves on and darkness takes its place
You will still be wrapped up warm, still held in this small space

[Chorus]
Enid, close your eyes and let the night come drifting in
Nothing far away tonight is worth the worrying
You are held here safe and warm, however small you seem
Enid, let the quiet carry you to sleep and dream

[Outro]
Somewhere still that wool is catching soft and fading light
Sleep now, Enid, gently held and safe within the night
