Lullabies for Callie

• Dew on the Wall

  Glockenspiel · Twinkling · Simple

  A slow, glockenspiel lullaby for settling a little one at night, built from the quiet image of dew gathering on cabbage leaves by a stone wall in moonlight.

  Verse 1

  The moon leans low along the low stone wall tonight Gathering soft on every leaf a small and silver bead And somewhere in that hush the whole wide world holds still Just to watch you breathing slow, which is all it needs

  Pre-chorus

  Every drop upon the garden waits without a sound Nothing hurries, nothing frets beneath this gentle dark Close your eyes now, let the quiet wrap around

  Chorus

  Callie, the night has folded soft around your bed Nothing can reach you here, nothing at all Sleep now, Callie, let the hours drift instead Safe as the dew that settles by the wall

  Verse 2

  I found the wall still warm from all the sun it kept And laid my hand upon the stone to feel it there You are that kind of warmth, the sort that never leaves Held in the dark and carried soft through midnight air

  Bridge

  Nothing asks of you tonight but rest No road to walk, no reaching, no far place to be

  Chorus

  Callie, the night has folded soft around your bed Nothing can reach you here, nothing at all Sleep now, Callie, let the hours drift instead Safe as the dew that settles by the wall

  Outro

  The moon will keep its watch along the low stone wall And I will keep mine quietly, right here, over you

  Verse 1

  Yellow light is spilling soft across the wooden floor tonight Little shadows settle down and everything feels right Somewhere past that paper shade the stars are waking slow You are wrapped in every warm and golden bit of light

  Chorus

  Callie, close your sleepy eyes and let the evening fall Nothing in this quiet house will ever let you fall I will hold the dark away as long as you need me Callie, you are loved beyond the corners of it all

  Verse 2

  Down along the hallway floor the light begins to fade Every worry of the day goes softly out of shade Breathe in slow and feel how safe this little room can be You were made for gentle rest, for peace that will not trade

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, let the house grow still around you where you lie Feel the warmth that never asks a single reason why Sleep is coming closer now, so let it, let it in

  Chorus

  Callie, close your sleepy eyes and let the evening fall Nothing in this quiet house will ever let you fall I will hold the dark away as long as you need me Callie, you are loved beyond the corners of it all

  Bridge

  Even when the lamp burns low and shadows start to grow You are held by something soft that only you can know

  Chorus

  Callie, close your sleepy eyes and let the evening fall Nothing in this quiet house will ever let you fall I will hold the dark away as long as you need me Callie, you are loved beyond the corners of it all

  Outro

  Somewhere on the floor that light is gently going gold Sleep now, little one, you're safe in every warmth I hold

  Verse 1

  The old brass latch is resting, nobody stirs it tonight Petals of paper are curling soft on the wall You breathe so easy under the low lamplight Nothing will reach you, nothing will fall

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, the shadows are only shadows here The house is holding its breath just to keep you warm Close your eyes, let the quiet draw near

  Chorus

  Callie, the night has folded down soft and slow Deep in the hush where the warm dark hides you well Callie, there's nowhere safer for you to go Sleep like a stone at the bottom of a well

  Verse 2

  Somewhere a door has forgotten its hinges creak Somewhere the wallpaper dreams of the garden it knew You are the reason this whole house stays so meek Every small sound in the dark bends round you

  Chorus

  Callie, the night has folded down soft and slow Deep in the hush where the warm dark hides you well Callie, there's nowhere safer for you to go Sleep like a stone at the bottom of a well

  Bridge

  I'll keep the latch from turning, keep the cold outside the frame Nothing will come to find you, nothing will learn your name

  Chorus

  Callie, the night has folded down soft and slow Deep in the hush where the warm dark hides you well Callie, there's nowhere safer for you to go Sleep like a stone at the bottom of a well

  Outro

  The petals stay curled and quiet, the latch stays still till dawn Sleep on, you are held here softly, long after this song is gone
