Soft as the Night Lets You Be
Style: Glockenspiel

[Verse 1]
Cream linen lifts and settles soft against the frame tonight
and somewhere in that quiet breath you're held and feel alright
warm air comes drifting slow across the room where you now lie
so let your busy little day go drifting on and by

[Pre-chorus]
Close now those heavy eyes and let the humming start
feel how the whole wide house is wrapped around your heart
and sleep is only waiting just a breath or two away

[Chorus]
Albie, Albie, hush now, let the dark be kind
drift now, little dreamer, leave the day behind
nothing in this soft room ever meant you harm
Albie, you are held here, safe and always warm

[Verse 2]
Out beyond the window all the stars are settling too
every quiet corner of this house belongs to you
nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to rush or climb
rest now in the gentle turning of the night time

[Bridge]
Should the wind come calling soft against the pane
know you're loved the same in sun as you're loved in rain
nothing out there in the dark can ever reach this bed

[Chorus]
Albie, Albie, hush now, let the dark be kind
drift now, little dreamer, leave the day behind
nothing in this soft room ever meant you harm
Albie, you are held here, safe and always warm

[Outro]
Let the curtain settle soft against the open frame
sleep now, little Albie, loved and always safe the same
