歌詞

Evening folds the avenue

Like silk across a scar

Your shoes keep time with scattered gold

Beneath a silver arc

The day has left its fingerprints

On brows and busy hands

Still, there is honey in the air

And softness where you stand

Spilled schedules, bent-out edges

A hundred little strains

Yet every little crack of light

Is finding you again

A shoulder drops, a jaw unclenches

The hard edge starts to fade

Like heated rain inside the sky

Unlearning what it made

So come a little closer

Let the heavy weather drift

There’s room inside this hush tonight

For every bruise to lift

The world can keep its sharpest knives

And all its restless noise

You only need this tender tide

To find a quieter voice

Slow sway, soft sway

You’re safe in the sway

Slow sway, soft sway

The dark can behave

Soft sway, soft sway

Let the ache drift away

Soft sway, soft sway

We’re gentle today

Holiday windows, open wide

For strangers and for spark

A laugh skips off the corridor

And lands like burnt-out spark

Across the room, a glance arrives

With fever in its lace

Your heart does that familiar turn

And colors up your face

Some love is loud and full of flags

Some love is just a thread

A ribbon tied around the wrist

A note left in the head

The careful kind, the patient kind

That never asks to win

It leans like moonlight on your skin

And lets the whole world in

So come a little closer

Let the heavy weather drift

There’s room inside this hush tonight

For every bruise to lift

The world can keep its sharpest knives

And all its restless noise

You only need this tender tide

To find a quieter voice

Slow sway, soft sway

You’re safe in the sway

Slow sway, soft sway

The dark can behave

Soft sway, soft sway

Let the ache drift away

Soft sway, soft sway

We’re gentle today

Workday hinges, crowded rooms

And voices on the wire

You carry storms in folded wings

And try to hide the fire

A nod, a pause, a breath that lands

Before the next demand

You move like dew on temple stone

With grace in each command

And when the load grows teeth again

And circles for a bite

Just let the velvet edge of dusk

Unravel what feels tight

No need to be unbreakable

No need to prove your worth

Some souls are built to bloom by touch

And patch the seams of earth

So come a little closer

Let the heavy weather drift

There’s room inside this hush tonight

For every bruise to lift

The world can keep its sharpest knives

And all its restless noise

You only need this tender tide

To find a quieter voice

Slow sway, soft sway

You’re safe in the sway

Slow sway, soft sway

The dark can behave

Soft sway, soft sway

Let the ache drift away

Soft sway, soft sway

We’re gentle today

When the long road bends to midnight

And your thoughts begin to spin

I’ll leave a line of warm-lit clouds

To help your patience in

No courtroom of the busy hours

Can sentence what you are

You are the calm inside the storm

The ember, not the scar

Let the old noise drift off

Let the hard tide turn

What was too sharp to carry

Can finally return

To silence, to skin, to breath

To the sweet slow pull

Of mercy in
