Last Stop Is You
Style: Celesta and strings

[Verse 1]
The night bus hums a low and gentle tune tonight
and every streetlamp dims to give you softer light
your little breaths are steady as the wheels below
so rest against me now, there's nowhere else to go

[Pre-chorus]
The windows fog with warmth we carry side by side
outside the world goes quiet, folds itself and hides
and something in my chest keeps singing, don't you know

[Chorus]
Ava, Ava, hush now, close your eyes
the whole wide sleepy city sings you lullabies
you are the softest stop this bus will ever make
Ava, you're the reason morning's worth the wait

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the bridge the lights begin to fade away
but you don't need to see them, you're already safe
curled here in the corner where the engine purrs so low
cradled by the rhythm of a road we barely know

[Bridge]
No need to keep your eyes open for the view
every mile behind us brought me closer to you
let the hum decide the hour, let the dark be kind

[Chorus]
Ava, Ava, hush now, close your eyes
the whole wide sleepy city sings you lullabies
you are the softest stop this bus will ever make
Ava, you're the reason morning's worth the wait

[Outro]
The bus rolls on so soft while you sleep safe and sound
and home is wherever your small breathing can be found
