Rain on the doorway,
heavy on your wings
Sit at the counter,
let go of everything
I keep the corners dimmed,
quiet and deep
A velvet sanctuary
where worn spirits sleep (mm-mm)
I tuck my hidden limbs behind the wooden bar
Afraid to frighten you
just as you are
Still I slide a warm cup
close into your hands
From one quiet creature
who understands
Rest your heavy
scales tonight
You don't have to
bear the fight
Weave your weary thoughts in thread with mine Let the embers gently
glow in time
I will hold the quiet space for you
(oh, for you)
Your fiery breath
is cold beneath the storm
I pour the honey slow to
keep you warm
My silhouette is strange,
but my touch is light
Tracing silver patience
through the night (stay a while)
If you knew the silk I spin behind the lace
Would you run away,
or look into my face?
I see the dragon hurting in your gaze
And I would gladly guard you all your days (yes
I would)
Rest your heavy
scales tonight
You don't have to bear the fight
Weave your weary thoughts in thread with mine
Let the embers
gently glow in time
I will hold the quiet space for you
(sweet Kitsu, lean on me)
Drink it slow, you're safe right here... (mm-mm-mm)
