Tracks in the Grass
Style: Celesta and strings

[Verse 1]
Far off in the grass the metal tracks are clicking soft
a tiny rhythm drifting up to where you lie aloft
nothing in the dark tonight would ever cause you harm
you are folded up so snug inside this quiet warm

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes and let the small sounds carry you along
every click and hush is humming like a lazy song
the night is only holding you the way it should

[Chorus]
Natalia, the grass is swaying slow beyond the pane
hush now, let the distant clicking ease away the day
you are loved beyond the reach of anything that strays
Natalia, sleep is coming soft to take you home again

[Verse 2]
Somewhere down the line a train is drifting far away
carrying its noise so gently it could almost stay
nobody could touch this stillness wrapped around your bed
safe beneath the blankets with your sleepy little head

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes and let the small sounds carry you along
every click and hush is humming like a lazy song
the night is only holding you the way it should

[Chorus]
Natalia, the grass is swaying slow beyond the pane
hush now, let the distant clicking ease away the day
you are loved beyond the reach of anything that strays
Natalia, sleep is coming soft to take you home again

[Bridge]
Rest now while the world goes on without a single sound
let the whole wide night keep watch and gather you around
nothing needs your waking, nothing needs your eyes tonight

[Chorus]
Natalia, the grass is swaying slow beyond the pane
hush now, let the distant clicking ease away the day
you are loved beyond the reach of anything that strays
Natalia, sleep is coming soft to take you home again

[Outro]
Somewhere still the tracks are clicking soft among the grass
and you are sleeping sound while all that gentle sound goes past
