Breath on the Glass
Style: Ambient wash

[Verse 1]
Somebody breathed on the cold glass pane and watched it slowly clear
The night rolled up against the window, gentle as your name
You traced a small warm circle there and knew that I was near
It fogged and cleared, it fogged again, and nothing stayed the same

[Pre-chorus]
Rest your head, let the whole wide house go quiet
Let the dark be just another blanket laid down soft
There is nothing out there wilder than this hush

[Chorus]
Ethel, close your eyes, the night has settled kind and slow
Somewhere past the glass the wind has turned so gentle
Ethel, you're the warmest light this small room will ever know
Sleep is just a petal folding, soft as Ethel

[Verse 2]
The glass held your breath a moment, then it let it go so light
Like every worry you were carrying could simply drift and fade
I watched the small cloud shrink and vanish into the calm night
And felt how safe this quiet corner of the world we'd made

[Pre-chorus]
Rest your head, let the whole wide house go quiet
Let the dark be just another blanket laid down soft
There is nothing out there wilder than this hush

[Chorus]
Ethel, close your eyes, the night has settled kind and slow
Somewhere past the glass the wind has turned so gentle
Ethel, you're the warmest light this small room will ever know
Sleep is just a petal folding, soft as Ethel

[Bridge]
Whatever door the morning opens, I'll be standing near
Hold this small warm hush a little longer, love, don't fear

[Chorus]
Ethel, close your eyes, the night has settled kind and slow
Somewhere past the glass the wind has turned so gentle
Ethel, you're the warmest light this small room will ever know
Sleep is just a petal folding, soft as Ethel

[Outro]
The glass has cleared now, and the stars are watching soft and slow
Sleep, my Ethel, breathe out gently, let the whole night go
