Silver on the Wood
Style: Rain and piano

[Verse 1]
Thin silver light is creeping slow across the yellow wood
Sliding so softly nothing in the room can stir
The dark is settling gentle now the way it always should
And you are safe here, quiet as the light is on the fur

[Chorus]
Kinsley, Kinsley, close your eyes and let the night come in
Nothing here will trouble you, nothing here will start
Every hush across this room is holding what you've been
Kinsley, you are carried soft and close against the heart

[Verse 2]
The window holds the evening like a hand around a flame
Steady while the house breathes low and settles into rest
Nothing in the shadows knows the shape of any blame
You are wrapped in all the warmth that loves you best

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let the quiet come and fold around your bed
Let the last light dim to nothing on the floor
Sleep is waiting gently just ahead

[Chorus]
Kinsley, Kinsley, close your eyes and let the night come in
Nothing here will trouble you, nothing here will start
Every hush across this room is holding what you've been
Kinsley, you are carried soft and close against the heart

[Bridge]
Rain is falling soft against the glass to keep you still
Piano notes are folding slow into the dark
Nothing asks you to be more than resting on this sill
Only that you drift and let the quiet leave its mark

[Chorus]
Kinsley, Kinsley, close your eyes and let the night come in
Nothing here will trouble you, nothing here will start
Every hush across this room is holding what you've been
Kinsley, you are carried soft and close against the heart

[Outro]
The silver light has faded soft across the yellow wood
And you are held here, sleeping, safe as anything good
