Frost on the Sill
Style: Celesta and strings

[Verse 1]
The lace curtain sways so slowly against the cold glass tonight
and frost is drawing quiet feathers along the sleepy sill
but here inside the warmth is holding you safe and close
while the whole wide world goes gentle and still

[Pre-chorus]
Let your breathing slow to match the hush that's settling in
feel how nothing out there can reach you, curled up so warm
the dark is only a blanket the night is pulling thin

[Chorus]
Heather, the frost can't touch you, not one small bit of cold
you are held here so gently, safer than words can say
rest now, Heather, let go of all you carried today
morning will come to find you exactly where you belong

[Verse 2]
Somewhere a window is catching the last thin light of the moon
but you don't need to watch it, you can close your eyes instead
every soft thing in this room is leaning in to keep you warm
and every quiet breath is a promise softly said

[Bridge]
Nothing will wake you, nothing will call you back tonight
you're wrapped in more comfort than any frost could ever bring

[Chorus]
Heather, the frost can't touch you, not one small bit of cold
you are held here so gently, safer than words can say
rest now, Heather, let go of all you carried today
morning will come to find you exactly where you belong

[Outro]
The curtain settles softly as the glass turns silver and still
sleep now, the frost stays outside, and you are warm on the sill
