Slow Rain, Sleep Now
Style: Soft piano

[Verse 1]
The rain slides slow along the darkened glass tonight
Tracing lines that never seem to hurry or to break
You are curled up warm beneath the soft lamplight
And nothing in this world could touch the peace you make

[Pre-chorus]
Let the wind outside go on and murmur what it will
The house is holding still around you, calm and slow
And you are safe here, drifting closer to it

[Chorus]
Sarah, the night has nothing sharper than a sigh
Every shadow in this room is soft and kind
You are the reason the quiet feels this fine
Sarah, sleep on, there is no need to wonder why

[Verse 2]
Somewhere beyond the glass the whole world dims and slows
Streetlights blur to gold through every falling drop
But here your breathing settles as the evening goes
And in this room, for you, the whole night stops

[Bridge]
No storm outside could ever reach where you are lying
Nothing out there matters more than this small, steady beat

[Chorus]
Sarah, the night has nothing sharper than a sigh
Every shadow in this room is soft and kind
You are the reason the quiet feels this fine
Sarah, sleep on, there is no need to wonder why

[Outro]
The rain will keep on sliding, gentle, down the pane
Sleep now, and let it carry you away from any care
