Warm by the Radiator
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
A little light hangs soft above the warmth of the wall
its frayed old cord swaying so quiet and small
and here in this glow where the shadows turn kind
I keep you close while the whole world winds down behind

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, the room has grown heavy and slow
everything gentle, however you go
and sleep is a tide that is starting to rise

[Chorus]
Gladys, the night is a blanket pulled tight
holding you soft in the warm lamplit light
nothing can touch you, no need to be sad
Gladys, you're loved more than words that we've had

[Verse 2]
Somewhere the radiator ticks low like a hum
steady and warm as a heartbeat becomes
and you, wrapped in quiet, are drifting so deep
carried by nothing but breathing and sleep

[Bridge]
Every small sound in this room says you're safe
every soft shadow has found its own place

[Chorus]
Gladys, the night is a blanket pulled tight
holding you soft in the warm lamplit light
nothing can touch you, no need to be sad
Gladys, you're loved more than words that we've had

[Outro]
That small frayed cord will still sway when you're grown
but tonight you are held, and you never sleep alone
