Slow Down the Glass
Style: Gentle acoustic

[Verse 1]
One small raindrop is easing down the glass tonight
Taking its time as it wanders through the lamplight
Nothing is rushing, nothing needs to hurry through
Close your eyes now, there is nothing left to do

[Pre-chorus]
Outside the dark is soft and it is holding still
Warm under blankets, safe upon the windowsill
Let every breath grow slower, easy, deep and true

[Chorus]
Inaya, hush now, the whole wide night is kind
Rest here beside me, leave the wandering day behind
Inaya, dream soft, let the quiet pull you in
Nothing can touch you, not while I am holding you

[Verse 2]
Somewhere that raindrop has settled at the very end
Down where the sill is soft and waiting like a friend
You are as certain as the coming of the light
Held here and steady through the middle of the night

[Bridge]
No need to chase the morning, no need to hold on tight
Just let the hours carry you so gently through the night

[Chorus]
Inaya, hush now, the whole wide night is kind
Rest here beside me, leave the wandering day behind
Inaya, dream soft, let the quiet pull you in
Nothing can touch you, not while I am holding you

[Outro]
The glass is quiet now, the raindrop found its rest
Sleep on, Inaya, safe and warm upon my chest
