Waylon, Rest Your Head
Style: Harp lullaby

[Verse 1]
The window wears a soft grey coat of dew tonight
and every worn old cushion holds the lamplight right
you curl up warm while cold glass drips outside
and nothing in this room could give you a fright

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let the hours grow slow and wide
let every worry drift like fog outside
close your eyes, I'm here to keep you safe till morning light

[Chorus]
Waylon, you are held here all the day long
nothing in the dark can do you wrong
my hand will stay on you the whole night through
Waylon, sleep as soft as any song

[Verse 2]
The glass grows cool but you stay warm against my chest
a train of thought goes drifting off to rest
you are the calm that settles down this house
and in your quiet breathing, I feel blessed

[Chorus]
Waylon, you are held here all the day long
nothing in the dark can do you wrong
my hand will stay on you the whole night through
Waylon, sleep as soft as any song

[Bridge]
Rain may fall and windows may turn cold
but you are safe in arms that gently hold
sleep will carry you where dreams unfold

[Chorus]
Waylon, you are held here all the day long
nothing in the dark can do you wrong
my hand will stay on you the whole night through
Waylon, sleep as soft as any song

[Outro]
The window's still, the tiny drops have dried to rest
Waylon, sleep now, you are deeply, dearly blessed
