Curtains at Rest
Style: Soft piano

[Verse 1]
Lace is lifting softly where the window meets the dark
Floorboards hold the quiet like a small and steady spark
You are safe beneath the hush that settles on this room
Wrapped in warmth while shadows learn to soften and to bloom

[Pre-chorus]
Somewhere past the curtain hangs a sliver of the moon
Breathe it in and let the evening hum its gentle tune
Close your eyes, my love, and drift where nothing comes too soon

[Chorus]
Nina, Nina, rest your head and let the night begin
Sleep is calling soft and low to carry you within
Every worry loosens here, dissolving like the light
Nina, hold this calm and let it cradle you tonight

[Verse 2]
Cotton sheets are cool and light like clouds against your skin
Nothing asks you to be more than simply drifting in
You could rest here endlessly and never lose your place
Held as gently as the breeze that moves this quiet space

[Bridge]
Let the hours grow slow and wide and soft around your name
Nothing in this room will ask you to be anything

[Chorus]
Nina, Nina, rest your head and let the night begin
Sleep is calling soft and low to carry you within
Every worry loosens here, dissolving like the light
Nina, hold this calm and let it cradle you tonight

[Outro]
Somewhere still the lace keeps breathing in and out so slow
Sleep now, little Nina, into all the calm you know
