Under the Leaves
Style: Glockenspiel

[Verse 1]
Softly the pram rolls on beneath the old and quiet trees
Shadows and light are playing gently on your wool blanket
Somewhere above, a small bird settles too
Nothing tonight can reach you, nothing troubles your ease

[Chorus]
Gerald, the dark is only leaves and quiet falling slow
Sleep finds you soft as shade that moves without a sound
Close now your eyes, let every worry go
Gerald, you're held here safely, wrapped in all we know

[Verse 2]
Wheels hum a tune too low for waking ears to catch
Light through the branches folds and settles on your face
Every breath you take is calm and slow
You drift where warmth and stillness meet in one small place

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, the evening leans in closer, soft and low
Even the wind has learned to move so gently by
So let the quiet carry you along

[Chorus]
Gerald, the dark is only leaves and quiet falling slow
Sleep finds you soft as shade that moves without a sound
Close now your eyes, let every worry go
Gerald, you're held here safely, wrapped in all we know

[Bridge]
No harm can find you here beneath the sheltering green
Rest is a hand that holds you gently through the night

[Chorus]
Gerald, the dark is only leaves and quiet falling slow
Sleep finds you soft as shade that moves without a sound
Close now your eyes, let every worry go
Gerald, you're held here safely, wrapped in all we know

[Outro]
Still the leaves keep turning shadows soft across your blanket
Sleep now, Gerald, safe beneath the quiet trees
