Verse 1

Salt is building on the brass Engines humming down the line I am standing in the diesel haze Waiting just to call you mine

Pre-chorus

Nothing here is shining clean Nothing here is new or grand But you are steady, you are seen And I am reaching for your hand

Chorus

Brianna, you are the reason I stay Through every crossing, every delay Brianna, my hands know your name Better than the salt knows the rail

Verse 2

Years could rust this railing through Wear it down to something plain But I keep finding truth in you Steady as the engine's strain

Nothing here is shining clean Nothing here is new or grand But you are steady, you are seen And I am reaching for your hand

Chorus

Brianna, you are the reason I stay Through every crossing, every delay Brianna, my hands know your name Better than the salt knows the rail

Bridge

I never needed the perfect view Just the low hum, just you Some loves shine, some just wear well Yours is the kind I trust to tell

Chorus

Brianna, you are the reason I stay Through every crossing, every delay Brianna, my hands know your name Better than the salt knows the rail

Let the brass go white with salt I will still be holding on

Verse 1

Paint on the canvas still wet Dripping slow onto your shoulder Gravel loud beneath our feet I felt something I couldn't hold up

Pre-chorus

I wasn't looking for this Wasn't ready for the weight Now I can't stop leaning in

Chorus

Brianna, you came in quiet Stayed before I knew your name Something plain turned to riot Brianna, you're not the same

Verse 2

You laughed at the mess on your sleeve Didn't wipe it, let it stay Some things aren't meant to leave You made the ruin feel okay

Bridge

No grand plan, no perfect hour Just the sound of stones underfoot You didn't need to try to flower You just grew where you were put

Chorus

Brianna, you came in quiet Stayed before I knew your name Something plain turned to riot Brianna, you're not the same

Outro

Blue still marks your shoulder Gravel still remembers our walk

Verse 1

Glass fogs up while we work the vines Your thumb finds the stem and it snaps clean I watch you more than the tomatoes You laugh like you already know it's true

Pre-chorus

I've got no big words for this Just the quiet way you fill a room So let me say it plain and close

Chorus

Brianna, I mean every word I say You steady me in your own way No banner, no grand display Brianna, I'm yours, come what may

Verse 2

Steam runs down in slow, small lines You wipe the glass so we can see I don't need the view, I need you here There's no version of this without your name

Chorus

Brianna, I mean every word I say You steady me in your own way No banner, no grand display Brianna, I'm yours, come what may

Some loves shout and some loves hum Ours has always been the second kind You don't need a stage to be seen I see you fine in ordinary light

The glass will always fog again And I'll still choose your hands over the view

Verse 1

Heavy flakes are sticking soft against the window pane tonight Amber light is humming low and settling on the sill Everything outside has slowed to such a gentle drifting weight And you are here with me, so calm and warm and still

Pre-chorus

Close your eyes and let the humming carry you away There is nothing in the dark tonight that means you harm Just the hush, the falling snow, the quiet turning grey

Chorus

Brianna, the whole night is wrapped around you soft and slow Nothing out there in the dark can ever touch you here You are held the way the snowfall holds the amber glow Sleep now, sleep now, sweet Brianna, there is nothing left to fear

Verse 2

The window keeps its quiet watch while you are tucked in deep Every flake that lands outside is settling just like you No sound but soft light humming while the whole world starts to sleep And you are safe beneath it, wrapped in warmth the whole night through

Pre-chorus

Close your eyes and let the humming carry you away There is nothing in the dark tonight that means you harm Just the hush, the falling snow, the quiet turning grey

Chorus

Brianna, the whole night is wrapped around you soft and slow Nothing out there in the dark can ever touch you here You are held the way the snowfall holds the amber glow Sleep now, sleep now, sweet Brianna, there is nothing left to fear

Bridge

Even when the morning comes to melt the snow away You will still be loved as gently as you are today

Chorus

Brianna, the whole night is wrapped around you soft and slow Nothing out there in the dark can ever touch you here You are held the way the snowfall holds the amber glow Sleep now, sleep now, sweet Brianna, there is nothing left to fear

Outro

The window holds its hush while amber light hums soft and low Sleep now, you are safe, and softly, softly, off you go

Verse 1

Slowly the shadows go drifting across the wall above you Soft as a hand that only means to love you Somewhere above us the old floor gives a quiet creak But nothing can touch you while you're tucked in safe and sleep

Pre-chorus

Hush now, the house is breathing slow around your bed Every small sound is just the night tucking in its head Close your eyes now, let the warm dark hold you instead

Chorus

Brianna, the night is only kindness in disguise Nothing in the shadows means you any harm tonight, Brianna Sleep now, you are held by more than you can see There's nowhere in this house that isn't wrapped around thee

Verse 2

The ceiling wears its patterns like a gentle lace of grey Watching over you until the dark gives way to day You don't have to know the reasons why you're loved so well Just that it is true tonight, more than words can tell

Chorus

Brianna, the night is only kindness in disguise Nothing in the shadows means you any harm tonight, Brianna Sleep now, you are held by more than you can see There's nowhere in this house that isn't wrapped around thee

Bridge

Every creak above is just the house saying goodnight Every shifting shadow only softens into light You are the reason all this quiet keeps its watch so near

Chorus

Brianna, the night is only kindness in disguise Nothing in the shadows means you any harm tonight, Brianna Sleep now, you are held by more than you can see There's nowhere in this house that isn't wrapped around thee

Outro

Let the shadows keep their slow and gentle turning overhead Rest now, you are so completely loved as you drift off to bed

Verse 1

Somewhere above the chimney pots the wind is turning slow Brushing soft as feathers where the old brick meets the sky Nothing out there in the dark can reach you here below You are held so gently, safe beneath my watching eye

Pre-chorus

Every draft that wanders home has somewhere warm to land Every small thing settles down when evening draws it in So let your breathing slow now, let me hold your hand

Chorus

Brianna, close your eyes, the whole wide night is still Nothing here will hurt you, nothing here will harm There is no one like you, and there never will Sleep now, Brianna, safe and always warm

Verse 2

The rooftops keep their quiet watch while all the town lies still Not one star will wander off, not one will drift too far You are more than every light that ever climbed a hill You are why the night feels safe, you are my only star

Chorus

Brianna, close your eyes, the whole wide night is still Nothing here will hurt you, nothing here will harm There is no one like you, and there never will Sleep now, Brianna, safe and always warm

Bridge

Rest your head, let go of all the day Morning comes so gently, it will wait

Chorus

Brianna, close your eyes, the whole wide night is still Nothing here will hurt you, nothing here will harm There is no one like you, and there never will Sleep now, Brianna, safe and always warm

Outro

Somewhere on the rooftops soft wings settle out of sight Rest now, little Brianna, held here through the night
