Free Lullabies for Kai

Verse 1

Lace is stirring soft against the frosted glass tonight Something in that hush is drifting slow and holding tight Your small breaths are matching every gentle sway Nothing in this room would ever dare to fight your quiet light

Chorus

Kai, the dark is only velvet wrapped around your bed Close those tired eyes, let all the worry go instead Nobody could love you higher than the stars up high Sleep now, Kai, with all my heart tucked in beside your head

Verse 2

Frost is painting quiet pictures on the window pane Warmth inside this small room keeps away the cold and rain You are curled up safer than a secret kept inside There is nowhere in the whole wide world I'd rather stay

Pre-chorus

Listen how the curtain hums a tune without a sound Feel how every heartbeat here is steady, soft and round Something sweet is waiting just before you drift so deep

Chorus

Kai, the dark is only velvet wrapped around your bed Close those tired eyes, let all the worry go instead Nobody could love you higher than the stars up high Sleep now, Kai, with all my heart tucked in beside your head

Bridge

Wooden walls will hold you steady through the whole night long Even shadows learn to hum you soft into your song

Chorus

Kai, the dark is only velvet wrapped around your bed Close those tired eyes, let all the worry go instead Nobody could love you higher than the stars up high Sleep now, Kai, with all my heart tucked in beside your head

Outro

Lace will keep on breathing gently long after you're asleep Rest now, little one, my love is yours to always keep

Verse 1

Warm wax is spilling slow across the glass tonight Painting soft little shadows that sway in the light You watch them go dancing along the striped wall Close up your eyes now, love, and let the day fall

Pre-chorus

Everything gentle is gathered around your bed Everything restless can wait till the morning instead So let the hush come and settle right over your head

Chorus

Kai, my love, the flame is burning low Kai, this quiet room is all you need to know Nothing in the dark tonight will ever come too nigh Rest now in the warmth that never says goodbye

Verse 2

Down in the glass the wax has pooled into gold Holding all the warmth so it won't ever go cold Breathe in slow now, let your busy thoughts unwind Sleep is only softness waiting close behind

Bridge

Even when the little flame has flickered out of sight Something soft and steady will be watching through the night You were loved before this candle ever learned to burn

Chorus

Kai, my love, the flame is burning low Kai, this quiet room is all you need to know Nothing in the dark tonight will ever come too nigh Rest now in the warmth that never says goodbye

Outro

The wax has gone still and the shadows have grown deep Sleep now, small light of mine, and drift away to sleep

Verse 1

The little lamp swings soft on chains of dimming brass tonight Its green glass pools a quiet colour on the stack of books below You watch the shadows settle till your eyes grow heavy and light And everything you carry now can finally let go

Pre-chorus

The house breathes slow around you, every corner turning kind Nothing needs your waking now, no reason left to try So let the last light dim and leave the day behind

Chorus

Kai, the whole wide house is holding you tonight Nothing here will wake you, nothing here will pry Close your eyes and drift beneath that gentle green glass light Kai, you're closer to me than the moon is to the sky

Verse 2

The books stay closed and dreaming with their stories tucked away Brass chains hang still now, not a single one will sway You've nothing left to finish, nothing more to say Just rest inside the hush that carries you away

Chorus

Kai, the whole wide house is holding you tonight Nothing here will wake you, nothing here will pry Close your eyes and drift beneath that gentle green glass light Kai, you're closer to me than the moon is to the sky

Bridge

Every soft thing in this room was chosen just for you The dark outside can't reach you, it only holds the view

Chorus

Kai, the whole wide house is holding you tonight Nothing here will wake you, nothing here will pry Close your eyes and drift beneath that gentle green glass light Kai, you're closer to me than the moon is to the sky

Outro

Sleep now beneath the green glass glow that watched you all along This is where you're loved the most, this is where you belong
