Silver Windows
Style: Kalimba night

[Verse 1]
Somewhere past the curtains a silver window shakes and hums along the track
There's a world out travelling while you stay warm and still
But nothing out there needs you the way this small room does
You are held here safer than a light could ever spill

[Pre-chorus]
Let the far off rattle turn into a hush
let the distant shine slip low and soft
and let your eyes grow heavy as the dark leans in

[Chorus]
Monty, the night is folding gently over you
Every window dims to let the quiet in
Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to move
Monty, you are held here, safe within

[Verse 2]
The carriage lights go sliding past the edges of your curtains
Small and far and softer than a breath
You don't have to follow where the silver windows travel
You are already where the calm rests best

[Pre-chorus]
Let the far off rattle turn into a hush
let the distant shine slip low and soft
and let your eyes grow heavy as the dark leans in

[Chorus]
Monty, the night is folding gently over you
Every window dims to let the quiet in
Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to move
Monty, you are held here, safe within

[Bridge]
Whatever moves beyond this room can wander on without you
You were never meant to chase the light, only to rest inside it

[Chorus]
Monty, the night is folding gently over you
Every window dims to let the quiet in
Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to move
Monty, you are held here, safe within

[Outro]
The last light fades soft behind the curtain's edge
And you are already sleeping, wrapped in warmth I keep for you
