Static and Slow
Style: Soft piano

[Verse 1]
The little radio hums low upon the drawers tonight
Its quiet static fills the room with something soft and right
You settle deeper into blankets, warm against my arm
Nothing in this world tonight will ever bring you harm

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the hush come drifting in
Feel the warmth begin to hold you, soft as skin
Sleep is waiting gently just beyond the light

[Chorus]
Albert, the night is yours to keep
Wrapped up so safely, drifting deep in sleep
Nobody's dearer, nobody's held so tight
Albert, my Albert, sleep through the night

[Verse 2]
Somewhere behind the hiss a whisper hums a lullaby
Soft as the breath that rises slow with every sigh
You curl your fingers round the blanket's edge so light
Held here forever, safe within the fading light

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the hush come drifting in
Feel the warmth begin to hold you, soft as skin
Sleep is waiting gently just beyond the light

[Chorus]
Albert, the night is yours to keep
Wrapped up so safely, drifting deep in sleep
Nobody's dearer, nobody's held so tight
Albert, my Albert, sleep through the night

[Bridge]
Rest now, let the static hum you low and slow
Nothing here will wake you, nothing here will go

[Chorus]
Albert, the night is yours to keep
Wrapped up so safely, drifting deep in sleep
Nobody's dearer, nobody's held so tight
Albert, my Albert, sleep through the night

[Outro]
Somewhere the radio murmurs on, soft and low
Sleep now, Albert, safe in all I know
