Steady Now, Freddie
Style: Flute and pad

[Verse 1]
Down the quiet landing a small light is burning low
Rocking soft and slow while the whole house breathes and settles
Nothing out here needs you awake to keep it safe
You can let your eyes go heavy, let the hush wash over you

[Chorus]
Freddie, Freddie, rest your head against the dark
Close your eyes and drift, there's no need to keep your spark
Somewhere near you always there's a warm and steady glow
Freddie, sleep is only love with all the lights turned low

[Verse 2]
Your breathing slows to match the rhythm of the chair
Every worry of the day has nowhere left to hide
Wrapped up warm against whatever waits outside
You are held so gently, you don't have to try

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, the hallway keeps its watch till morning comes
Nothing will stir you, nothing sharp or loud or wide
Let go a little more, you're nearly there

[Chorus]
Freddie, Freddie, rest your head against the dark
Close your eyes and drift, there's no need to keep your spark
Somewhere near you always there's a warm and steady glow
Freddie, sleep is only love with all the lights turned low

[Bridge]
Whatever the night is, you don't have to face it alone
Even the shadows here are only softness wearing grey

[Chorus]
Freddie, Freddie, rest your head against the dark
Close your eyes and drift, there's no need to keep your spark
Somewhere near you always there's a warm and steady glow
Freddie, sleep is only love with all the lights turned low

[Outro]
That small light will still be burning when the morning finds you
Sleep now, Freddie, safe and warm until the day comes home
