Silver on the Ceiling
Style: Soft piano

[Verse 1]
Silver shadows drift so slowly over the plaster above your head
watching you breathe there so quiet and so slow
nothing in this room would ever wake you now
only the hush that loves you, gentle and low

[Pre-chorus]
The light on the ceiling is moving just for you
soft as a hand that smooths the day away
waiting to carry you where the dreams begin

[Chorus]
Sandra, the dark is only a blanket pulled up warm
nothing will trouble you, nothing will call
you are the safest thing that this house has ever known
Sandra, you're held here whatever may fall

[Verse 2]
The wooden cot creaks soft like it's humming just for you
rocking you slower than any lullaby could
every small breath you take is a promise kept
that you are loved simply because you are you

[Bridge]
Rest now, let the silver keep its watch above you
nothing needs your eyes tonight, nothing at all

[Chorus]
Sandra, the dark is only a blanket pulled up warm
nothing will trouble you, nothing will call
you are the safest thing that this house has ever known
Sandra, you're held here whatever may fall

[Outro]
Sleep now, while the shadows keep sliding overhead
you are the reason this whole house holds still
