[Intro] [Verse 1] At the edge of light it likes to walk so slowly A little white shape moves through the quiet room The more that I look the more it softly fades It is there before any little word begins [Chorus] The white child by the window still has no name at all It seems to know the quiet edge of light so well The white child by the window I don’t need to hold too tight Just being here makes the whole room feel so soft [Verse 2] When I open a book it comes onto the page Not really asleep just resting gently there If I call to it then it fades away from me So I stay quiet and slowly pour some tea [Bridge] On lonely days and also happy days With the same warmth it stays right there with me [Final Chorus] The white child by the window still has no name at all But more than all else it feels like the softest light The white child by the window even after it softly goes Along the curtain edge its kindness still remains there
