The Stair Remembers Softly
Style: Glockenspiel

[Verse 1]
The old stair creaks so softly just to carry me to you
It knows the weight of love that only wants to see you through
Every yellow board is humming out a hush, a gentle tune
Because it knows who's waiting up there underneath the moon

[Pre-chorus]
So close your eyes, the house is breathing slow and low tonight
The empty carpet holds its breath to keep the hallway light
And every step is bringing me to where you're tucked in tight

[Chorus]
Delilah, the whole house softens when you finally sleep
Nothing in this world could ever be too much to keep
Delilah, you're the reason every quiet floor feels warm
You're held here safer than a Delilah in a storm

[Verse 2]
The night outside is settling like a blanket on the town
And every little sound out there has learned to lay right down
No shadow on the wall would ever dare to come too near
Because it feels how loved you are, and softens with you here

[Pre-chorus]
So close your eyes, the house is breathing slow and low tonight
The empty carpet holds its breath to keep the hallway light
And every step is bringing me to where you're tucked in tight

[Chorus]
Delilah, the whole house softens when you finally sleep
Nothing in this world could ever be too much to keep
Delilah, you're the reason every quiet floor feels warm
You're held here safer than a Delilah in a storm

[Bridge]
Rest your small hands, let the whole night hold its breath for you
Nothing has to hurry now, there's nothing left to do

[Chorus]
Delilah, the whole house softens when you finally sleep
Nothing in this world could ever be too much to keep
Delilah, you're the reason every quiet floor feels warm
You're held here safer than a Delilah in a storm

[Outro]
The stair will keep its quiet watch till morning finds the light
Sleep now, you are so completely loved tonight
