Blue Wool and Quiet
Style: Vibraphone drift

[Verse 1]
Something small is rolling gently under the blanket by your knee
and the whole wide house has settled down to nothing else but thee
the lamp is low and the window's dark
this is the softest hour you'll ever see

[Pre-chorus]
Every little sound has folded up and gone to rest
the blue wool's pulled up warm across your chest
so let your eyes grow heavy, let the day go

[Chorus]
Walker, the night has nothing left to ask of you
hold onto sleep the way the dark holds on to dew
you are the calmest thing this quiet house has known
Walker, there's nowhere gentler than right here with you

[Verse 2]
Somewhere beneath the springs a tiny weight keeps drifting still
a small round wandering that means no harm and never will
your breathing slows to match the hush
and everything tonight is standing very still

[Pre-chorus]
Every little sound has folded up and gone to rest
the blue wool's pulled up warm across your chest
so let your eyes grow heavy, let the day go

[Chorus]
Walker, the night has nothing left to ask of you
hold onto sleep the way the dark holds on to dew
you are the calmest thing this quiet house has known
Walker, there's nowhere gentler than right here with you

[Bridge]
Rest now, you don't have to hold on to a single thing
let the whole day loosen and slip off like a ring
nothing is asked of you but this soft, slow drifting in

[Chorus]
Walker, the night has nothing left to ask of you
hold onto sleep the way the dark holds on to dew
you are the calmest thing this quiet house has known
Walker, there's nowhere gentler than right here with you

[Outro]
Somewhere under the blanket the last small motion has come to rest
and so have you, held here, and warmly blessed
