Rain on the Window
Style: Celesta and strings

[Verse 1]
Heavy drops are sliding slowly down the cold glass pane
and shadows stretch across the floor like a quiet, dark refrain
but nothing in this room can ever reach where you are curled
so let the night keep turning while you drift away again

[Pre-chorus]
The dark outside is only weather, nothing more than that
it cannot touch the warmth we've built beneath this soft, worn mat
so close your eyes, my darling, and let the hush roll in

[Chorus]
Magnolia, the rain can fall forever on the glass
hold you closer than the shadows ever learned to pass
you are the warmest corner of this whole and drowsy home
Magnolia, let the quiet carry you at last

[Verse 2]
The wind can push against the window, restless and unkind
but you are folded into blankets, far from what it finds
every little shadow dims the moment that you sigh
and sleep comes soft and steady, gathering you like a tide

[Chorus]
Magnolia, the rain can fall forever on the glass
hold you closer than the shadows ever learned to pass
you are the warmest corner of this whole and drowsy home
Magnolia, let the quiet carry you at last

[Bridge]
Every drop that slides is only tracing out goodnight
nothing in this house will ever let you out of sight

[Chorus]
Magnolia, the rain can fall forever on the glass
hold you closer than the shadows ever learned to pass
you are the warmest corner of this whole and drowsy home
Magnolia, let the quiet carry you at last

[Outro]
The rain still slides in silence down the same old windowpane
but you are safe and sleeping, far beyond its reach again
