Soft as Hangers
Style: Harp lullaby

[Verse 1]
Coat hangers click as the closet door swings slowly shut tonight
Somewhere behind it your little shoes are lined up out of sight
Every small sound in this house is turning softer than before
Hush follows hush as we settle in and quietly close the door

[Pre-chorus]
Nothing will stir and nothing will call you back from where you lie
Only the hush of a closing house and one soft lullaby
Close your eyes now, let the last of the evening drift on by

[Chorus]
Sleep now, Aubrey, the whole house has gone quiet and slow
Nothing can reach you, nowhere you have to go
You are the warmest thing in this whole sleepy place
Aubrey, my Aubrey, dream with a peaceful face

[Verse 2]
Somewhere a sleeve is swaying gently on its little wooden hook
Nothing is watching over you tonight except this quiet book
Shadows have folded themselves up small along the wall
You are too loved to notice them or worry about them at all

[Bridge]
Rest your whole weight down into the dark, it will hold you fine
Every soft click in the quiet house is only a lullaby line

[Chorus]
Sleep now, Aubrey, the whole house has gone quiet and slow
Nothing can reach you, nowhere you have to go
You are the warmest thing in this whole sleepy place
Aubrey, my Aubrey, dream with a peaceful face

[Outro]
Somewhere the hangers have settled and stopped their gentle sway
You are held safe here until the light of day
