Curtains Breathe So Slow
Style: Kalimba night

[Verse 1]
Lace is stirring soft against the frosted glass tonight
Something in that hush is drifting slow and holding tight
Your small breaths are matching every gentle sway
Nothing in this room would ever dare to fight your quiet light

[Chorus]
Kai, the dark is only velvet wrapped around your bed
Close those tired eyes, let all the worry go instead
Nobody could love you higher than the stars up high
Sleep now, Kai, with all my heart tucked in beside your head

[Verse 2]
Frost is painting quiet pictures on the window pane
Warmth inside this small room keeps away the cold and rain
You are curled up safer than a secret kept inside
There is nowhere in the whole wide world I'd rather stay

[Pre-chorus]
Listen how the curtain hums a tune without a sound
Feel how every heartbeat here is steady, soft and round
Something sweet is waiting just before you drift so deep

[Chorus]
Kai, the dark is only velvet wrapped around your bed
Close those tired eyes, let all the worry go instead
Nobody could love you higher than the stars up high
Sleep now, Kai, with all my heart tucked in beside your head

[Bridge]
Wooden walls will hold you steady through the whole night long
Even shadows learn to hum you soft into your song

[Chorus]
Kai, the dark is only velvet wrapped around your bed
Close those tired eyes, let all the worry go instead
Nobody could love you higher than the stars up high
Sleep now, Kai, with all my heart tucked in beside your head

[Outro]
Lace will keep on breathing gently long after you're asleep
Rest now, little one, my love is yours to always keep
