Warm Against the Glass
Style: Clarinet nightlight

[Verse 1]
Rain is drawing soft little rivers down the glass tonight
Warmth from the heater climbs up slow to find the light
Stuck above it, yellow stubs are keeping all our days
You are curled up safe here, held so close and tight

[Chorus]
Libby, Libby, close your eyes and let the hours go slow
Nothing in this whole wide world could love you less than so
Every little ticket keeps a moment we both know
Sleep now, Libby, in the warmth this quiet room can throw

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the window all the streets are turning grey
You are wrapped in blankets while the night takes work away
Steam is on the glass now like a breath that lingers long
Nothing has to hurry, there is nowhere else to stay

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let the heater hum you further into rest
Every yellow stub up there was chosen, was your best
Sleep is only waiting for the song that comes to bless

[Chorus]
Libby, Libby, close your eyes and let the hours go slow
Nothing in this whole wide world could love you less than so
Every little ticket keeps a moment we both know
Sleep now, Libby, in the warmth this quiet room can throw

[Bridge]
Small stubs of paper hold their place against the pane
Little proof that we were here, unbothered by the rain
You are the reason any of it mattered at all

[Chorus]
Libby, Libby, close your eyes and let the hours go slow
Nothing in this whole wide world could love you less than so
Every little ticket keeps a moment we both know
Sleep now, Libby, in the warmth this quiet room can throw

[Outro]
Rain still draws its rivers down the glass while you lie still
Sleep now, little Libby, warm against the windowsill
