Still and Wheels
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
Heavy leaves have folded softly over the lamp above your bed
Holding back the light so gently till it's just a glowing thread
Nothing here will hurry you before your dreams have all been said
So let the hush wrap round you, little sleepy nodding head

[Chorus]
Wendy, close your eyes now, the dark is soft and kind
Every little worry can be left so far behind
Wendy, you are held here, safe and warm and lined
With all the love that's watching, gentle, calm, and blind to time

[Verse 2]
Somewhere down below you wheels are resting, still and slow
Nobody is pushing, nowhere left to go
You can let your breathing settle soft and low
Wrapped inside the quiet only sleeping children know

[Pre-chorus]
Feel how the night leans closer, gentle as a friend
Nothing needs an answer, nothing needs to end
Just this warm and lasting stillness we can send

[Chorus]
Wendy, close your eyes now, the dark is soft and kind
Every little worry can be left so far behind
Wendy, you are held here, safe and warm and lined
With all the love that's watching, gentle, calm, and blind to time

[Bridge]
Sleep is just a small boat drifting without a sound
Carrying you gently while the whole world settles down

[Chorus]
Wendy, close your eyes now, the dark is soft and kind
Every little worry can be left so far behind
Wendy, you are held here, safe and warm and lined
With all the love that's watching, gentle, calm, and blind to time

[Outro]
Leaves will keep the streetlight gentle till the morning comes for you
Rest now, little Wendy, in the quiet that stayed true
