Quiet Harbor

[Intro] Soft rain taps the window, a quiet hum of night A kettle sighs in the corner, amber harbor light [Verse 1] I lean into a stillness, the world soft as a sigh Breath slows like a clock that learned to listen to the sky Footsteps of memory drift by on a velvet thread Here in the hush I find the things I almost said [Chorus] Hold this moment close, let the silence glow Tiny sparks of worry fade like gentle snow If I speak too loud, the night might bend and bend So I breathe, and I begin again, again [Verse 2] A mug warms my hands, steam writes a whispered line In the dimming light, I measure what it means to be mine A distant train hums a lullaby through the lace of dusk I trace the quiet corners where tenderness is hushed [Chorus] Hold this moment close, let the silence glow Tiny sparks of worry fade like gentle snow If I speak too loud, the night might bend and bend So I breathe, and I begin again, again [Bridge] Slow hands, slow heart, listening for a softer sound The room keeps a promise that real feelings can be found [Chorus] Hold this moment close, let the silence glow Tiny sparks of worry fade like gentle snow If I speak too loud, the night might bend and bend So I breathe, and I begin again, again [Outro] The kettle settles, the lamp learns how to glow In the quiet, I am listening to the love I know
