The Wind Drops Low
Style: Rocking chair waltz

[Verse 1]
Pine needles brush the frosted glass so softly now
and you are wrapped in blankets warm beneath the bough
I feel the wind outside begin to drop and fold
while you stay safe and far away from any cold

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes, let every worry drift and fade
the whole wide night is gentle, nothing feels afraid
and softly now I'll sing the words that pull you in

[Chorus]
Vicki, Vicki, hush now, let the dark be kind
sleep is only quiet, nothing left to find
Every little breath of yours is safe with me
Vicki, you're the warmest thing this night will ever see

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the window frost is settling soft and slow
and you are held here closer than the wind could know
Nothing in the shadows means a single thing tonight
because you rest so calmly wrapped in gentle light

[Bridge]
Let the branches tap a rhythm slow and true
a rocking little waltz that's only meant for you
Nothing sharp or icky ever gets this near
just my voice beside you, soft and always here

[Chorus]
Vicki, Vicki, hush now, let the dark be kind
sleep is only quiet, nothing left to find
Every little breath of yours is safe with me
Vicki, you're the warmest thing this night will ever see

[Outro]
Somewhere still the pine needles rest against the pane
and you sleep on, held gently, safe from wind and rain
