Fogged Windows
Style: Accordion cradle

[Verse 1]
The last bus hums so low it could be humming just for you
Your breathing fogs the glass and blooms there soft and slow
Outside the world goes quiet, keeping every light subdued
Wherever this night carries us, that's the only place I'll go

[Pre-chorus]
Let your shoulders sink down heavy, let your small hands finally rest
Every mile tonight is folding gently into one long sigh
There's nothing left to hold but this, so hold it, you are blessed

[Chorus]
Nell, the whole night leans in closer just to keep you warm
Somewhere past the window, morning waits but is in no rush
Nell, you are the softest thing that sheltered from the storm
And here inside this quiet, love, the whole wide world can hush

[Verse 2]
The glass stays warm a little longer where your breath has been
Like proof that you were here, that you are always somewhere near
Nothing in the dark tonight has any right to be unkind
I'll keep the small lamp burning low till every star is clear

[Chorus]
Nell, the whole night leans in closer just to keep you warm
Somewhere past the window, morning waits but is in no rush
Nell, you are the softest thing that sheltered from the storm
And here inside this quiet, love, the whole wide world can hush

[Bridge]
Sleep now, and let the engine be the only sound you know
Nothing is asked of you but rest, and rest is all you owe

[Chorus]
Nell, the whole night leans in closer just to keep you warm
Somewhere past the window, morning waits but is in no rush
Nell, you are the softest thing that sheltered from the storm
And here inside this quiet, love, the whole wide world can hush

[Outro]
The window's clear now, love, but still I'm watching over you
Breathe easy, Nell, the night has got you all the way through
