Soft as You Are

**[Verse 1 – female vocals]** Close your eyes, dear wanderer, sleep where you stand, You’re held by the night like the sea holds the sand. No need to be louder, no need to be fast— The world makes space for the gentle that last. **[Verse 2 – male vocals]** You don’t need thunder to speak what is true, The stars only sparkle because they're like you. Soft, and unsure, and shifting with grace— You carry your light in the quietest place. **[Chorus – Both (Harmony)** Let go of the weight that you borrowed today, The world won’t forget you if you float away. Just rest for a moment, let dreams do their part— You’re soft, and that softness is strong in your heart. **[Bridge – female vocals, then male vocals softly echoing]** So hush now, my brilliant, unguarded star, You’re loved just for being as soft as you are... (as soft as you are...) **[Final Line – Both, slow and steady]** You’re loved just for being... as soft as you are.
