Thick White Flakes
Style: Clarinet nightlight

[Verse 1]
Thick white flakes are sticking softly to the window pane tonight
Gathering like whispers gently falling out of candlelight
Everything is hushing slowly as the whole wide world grows still
You are warm and you are held here, safe against the coming chill

[Chorus]
Jessica, the snow is falling soft and slow above your head
Nothing in this quiet world could ever touch you in your bed
Jessica, my Jessica, the night is wrapped around you tight
Sleep and know you're loved completely, all the way till morning light

[Verse 2]
Every flake that settles gently finds a place to rest and stay
Just like you were always welcome, just like you were meant to stay
Close your eyes and feel the stillness spreading out across the room
Nothing waits for you but softness, nothing but a gentle bloom

[Pre-chorus]
Listen to the hush that's falling, quiet as a held-in breath
Feel the warmth that keeps on holding, closer than the cold beyond
Let it carry you off softly to the place where dreaming starts

[Chorus]
Jessica, the snow is falling soft and slow above your head
Nothing in this quiet world could ever touch you in your bed
Jessica, my Jessica, the night is wrapped around you tight
Sleep and know you're loved completely, all the way till morning light

[Bridge]
Somewhere out beyond the window, all the world is turning white
But in here you are the warmest thing that's held within the night
Rest now, let the hours drift by soft and slow like falling snow

[Chorus]
Jessica, the snow is falling soft and slow above your head
Nothing in this quiet world could ever touch you in your bed
Jessica, my Jessica, the night is wrapped around you tight
Sleep and know you're loved completely, all the way till morning light

[Outro]
Somewhere the flakes are still sticking softly to the window pane
And you are safe and sound and sleeping, held here safe again
