Coats by the Door
Style: Vibraphone drift

[Verse 1]
Heavy coats are hanging quiet above the sleepy floor
Little clicks come soft against the wall behind the door
Nothing in this house is asking anything of you
Rest is all that's waiting for you, nothing less, nothing more

[Pre-chorus]
Every sound tonight is turning gentle, turning low
Warmth is settling into corners only you would know
Close your eyes now, let the hush come rolling in

[Chorus]
Asher, the whole house breathes around you soft and slow
Nothing here will hurry you or ask you where to go
You are held here safer than you'll ever need to know
Asher, sleep is closer now than anything you know

[Verse 2]
Underneath the coats the radiator hums a low goodnight
Shadows on the ceiling move so easy, move so light
You don't need to watch them, you can let your eyelids fall
Nothing in the dark tonight has any wish to fight

[Pre-chorus]
Every sound tonight is turning gentle, turning low
Warmth is settling into corners only you would know
Close your eyes now, let the hush come rolling in

[Chorus]
Asher, the whole house breathes around you soft and slow
Nothing here will hurry you or ask you where to go
You are held here safer than you'll ever need to know
Asher, sleep is closer now than anything you know

[Bridge]
Stay a while inside this quiet, nothing here will ask you twice
You were always worth this softness, always worth this kind of night

[Chorus]
Asher, the whole house breathes around you soft and slow
Nothing here will hurry you or ask you where to go
You are held here safer than you'll ever need to know
Asher, sleep is closer now than anything you know

[Outro]
The coats will still be hanging there when morning comes to call
Sleep now, Asher, you are safe beneath it all
