Still, Will
Style: Fingerpicked night

[Verse 1]
A small flame is bending, soft and low on its saucer
Wax has pooled into rings, slow and warm as they gather
You are held in this hush where the shadows grow kind
Nothing hurries tonight, there is nowhere to find

[Pre-chorus]
The wick leans down gentle as your eyes start to close
Every breath that you take slows the world as it goes
So let the light settle, let the dark hold you near

[Chorus]
Will, my Will, let the quiet come in
Soft as wax pooling, soft as your skin
Nothing can touch you, nothing brings chill
Sleep finds you easy, sleep finds you still

[Verse 2]
You curl like the flame does, small and unbothered by dark
Breathing so steady it echoes the pulse of the hearth
Every small sound in the house has gone gentle for you
Even the night here is learning what warmth is to do

[Chorus]
Will, my Will, let the quiet come in
Soft as wax pooling, soft as your skin
Nothing can touch you, nothing brings chill
Sleep finds you easy, sleep finds you still

[Bridge]
Let the last light go low, let it settle and dim
There is nothing to chase, there is no need to swim
You can rest in this stillness, you can rest without fear

[Chorus]
Will, my Will, let the quiet come in
Soft as wax pooling, soft as your skin
Nothing can touch you, nothing brings chill
Sleep finds you easy, sleep finds you still

[Outro]
The flame has gone quiet, gone soft as your sighing
Sleep well, little Will, while the wax is still drying
