Verse 1

You left your blue scarf on the chair

Two little kittens curled up there

They nose the sleeve, then look at me

As if they know what used to be

Pre-Chorus

I warm their milk beside the sink

They watch the empty doorway blink

Chorus

Sleep, little ones, the rain will pass

I'll keep you safe beneath the glass

Your tiny paws still search the hall

For footsteps that won't come at all

Sleep, little ones, the night is wide

I'll stay right here beside your side

Verse 2

One chases dust across the floor
