White Against the Glass
Style: Glockenspiel

[Verse 1]
White flakes are settling soft on the dark windowpane tonight
Resting above the pipes where the warmth is holding tight
You are curled up safe where the quiet loves to stay
Nothing can touch you now as the light drains away

[Pre-chorus]
The whole wide world outside has gone hushed and gone still
Only the low warm hum of the radiator to fill
This small and gentle room where I'm watching over you

[Chorus]
Harold, the snow is falling slow and the house is warm and stilled
Nothing tonight can reach you, Harold, every corner filled
You are the softest thing this whole quiet house has known
Sleep now, my dear one, you are never on your own

[Verse 2]
Outside the glass grows cloudy white while the pipes breathe low and slow
Inside your blankets gather round you like the warmest kind of snow
Every small sound has faded till the night is only breath
You are held so closely here, there's nothing left to dread

[Chorus]
Harold, the snow is falling slow and the house is warm and stilled
Nothing tonight can reach you, Harold, every corner filled
You are the softest thing this whole quiet house has known
Sleep now, my dear one, you are never on your own

[Bridge]
Let the flakes keep drifting down while your breathing settles deep
Every warm and steady beat is carrying you to sleep

[Chorus]
Harold, the snow is falling slow and the house is warm and stilled
Nothing tonight can reach you, Harold, every corner filled
You are the softest thing this whole quiet house has known
Sleep now, my dear one, you are never on your own

[Outro]
The window still holds its small white flakes, gentle and slow
Sleep now, you are so deeply loved, wherever you go
