Snow on the Sill
Style: Rocking chair waltz

[Verse 1]
Flakes are drifting slow past the lamp beyond the glass
and every one comes down to lay its head like you
softness catching light in a hush too kind to pass
you're warmer than the whitest thing this whole night through

[Chorus]
Solomon, the dark is only resting on the sill
Solomon, my hands will keep you steady and you're still
nothing out there needs to trouble you tonight
you're held so close no cold could ever reach or chill

[Verse 2]
Outside the window turns to feathers, soft and slow
watching sills grow quiet under all that falling white
you don't need to know the wind or where it goes
just how my arms will keep you folded in tonight

[Pre-chorus]
Let your eyes grow heavy as the sky forgets its blue
sleep is only snowfall settling soft on you
and morning waits so gently just beyond this room

[Chorus]
Solomon, the dark is only resting on the sill
Solomon, my hands will keep you steady and you're still
nothing out there needs to trouble you tonight
you're held so close no cold could ever reach or chill

[Bridge]
Every flake outside will settle where it's meant to lie
and you were always meant to rest right here with me

[Chorus]
Solomon, the dark is only resting on the sill
Solomon, my hands will keep you steady and you're still
nothing out there needs to trouble you tonight
you're held so close no cold could ever reach or chill

[Outro]
Sleep now while the window keeps its white and quiet glow
you are warmer than the snow could ever know
