White Cotton Sky
Style: Vibraphone drift

[Verse 1]
White cotton shifts so softly at the window near your bed
Nothing in this room would ever wake you or bring dread
Curtains lift and settle like a breath let slowly go
Somewhere far off gently, a lullaby is said

[Chorus]
Myla, close your eyes now, let the whole wide night grow still
Rest inside the quiet that no worry ever fills
Sleep is only kindness wrapped around you like a hand
Myla, you are held here, and you always will

[Verse 2]
Moonlight finds the cotton and it turns it soft and pale
Every little shadow in this room is on your side
Warmth is folded round you like a well kept secret told
Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to hide

[Pre-chorus]
Feel how slow the curtain breathes against the frame
Nothing in the dark tonight will ever learn your name
Let that gentle rhythm carry you to where

[Chorus]
Myla, close your eyes now, let the whole wide night grow still
Rest inside the quiet that no worry ever fills
Sleep is only kindness wrapped around you like a hand
Myla, you are held here, and you always will

[Bridge]
Somewhere past the window, morning waits its turn
You don't need to reach it, you don't need to learn
Stay a while in stillness, stay a while in white
Let the cloth keep drifting through the calm of night

[Chorus]
Myla, close your eyes now, let the whole wide night grow still
Rest inside the quiet that no worry ever fills
Sleep is only kindness wrapped around you like a hand
Myla, you are held here, and you always will

[Outro]
White cotton still is moving where the open window stands
Sleep now, you are gathered gently into steady hands
