Wheels on the Frost
Style: Glockenspiel

[Verse 1]
Far away wheels are clicking soft along the frozen line
Their sound comes small and gentle through the window pane
Ice is drawing quiet patterns while you rest so fine
Nothing out there in the dark can touch you again

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the night pull its blanket round
Every sound outside is turning into a hush
Softer now, softer still, until there's barely a sound

[Chorus]
Lyla, the whole wide world can wait till morning light
Warm in this room where nothing can bring you harm
You are the reason this house feels golden tonight
Lyla, you rest so safe and calm in my arms

[Verse 2]
The frost keeps climbing slowly up the window glass
Painting its small white feathers while you drift so deep
Distant wheels are humming as the night wind passes
You are held here gently all the way to sleep

[Chorus]
Lyla, the whole wide world can wait till morning light
Warm in this room where nothing can bring you harm
You are the reason this house feels golden tonight
Lyla, you rest so safe and calm in my arms

[Bridge]
Let the tracks fade further, let the sound grow thin
There is nowhere kinder than this quiet room
Everything outside stays outside, safe within

[Chorus]
Lyla, the whole wide world can wait till morning light
Warm in this room where nothing can bring you harm
You are the reason this house feels golden tonight
Lyla, you rest so safe and calm in my arms

[Outro]
Somewhere far off, the last small wheel clicks and is still
The frost keeps watch while you sleep on, safe and warm
