Wool and the Rocking Chair
Style: Clarinet nightlight

[Verse 1]
Wool hangs long and soft beside the rocking chair tonight
Every thread is swaying gentle, keeping time with you
Nothing in this quiet room could ever cause you fright
Close your eyes now, let the dark be kind and true

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let the little sounds of evening fade away
Feel the chair beneath you rock the worry out of you
Sleep is coming soft and slow to carry you today

[Chorus]
Niamh, my love, the night is wrapping soft around you now
Nothing here will hurt you, nothing here will make you leave
Rest your head, let every worry loosen from your brow
Niamh, you are held here safer than the wool sleeve

[Verse 2]
Shadows on the wall are only dancing, never near
Warm and low the lamp is glowing just for you to see
Nothing in this house tonight could give you cause to fear
Sleep will hold you gentle as the fringe against your knee

[Bridge]
Rock a little slower now, the night has grown so still
Every breath you take is safe, and always it will be

[Chorus]
Niamh, my love, the night is wrapping soft around you now
Nothing here will hurt you, nothing here will make you leave
Rest your head, let every worry loosen from your brow
Niamh, you are held here safer than the wool sleeve

[Outro]
Somewhere still the wool is swaying gentle by the chair
Sleep now, little one, for you are cradled everywhere
