Down the Quiet Hall
Style: Rocking chair waltz

[Verse 1]
Down the quiet hall the soft bulbs glow above you
Painted banisters stand watching just to know you
Every step we take is slower than the last
You are held so close, there's nothing rushing past

[Chorus]
Ezekiel, the house breathes low and easy
Sleep can find you here so soft and easily
Ezekiel, this light was made to keep you
Nothing in the dark tonight will ever reach you

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the door the night is turning kind
Nothing in this house will ever change its mind
You are what the glow was always leaning toward
Wrapped in every warmth this hallway can afford

[Pre-chorus]
Hear how the floor forgets to creak beneath us
Feel how the yellow light has come to lean and reach us
Close your eyes now, let the hallway hold what's real

[Chorus]
Ezekiel, the house breathes low and easy
Sleep can find you here so soft and easily
Ezekiel, this light was made to keep you
Nothing in the dark tonight will ever reach you

[Bridge]
Let the whole wide dark stay outside these walls
Nothing far or loud will find you in these halls
You were always safe here, long before you knew it

[Chorus]
Ezekiel, the house breathes low and easy
Sleep can find you here so soft and easily
Ezekiel, this light was made to keep you
Nothing in the dark tonight will ever reach you

[Outro]
Rest now, the bulbs still glow above the stairway
Sleep now, you're already halfway down the sweet way
