One Coat on the Hook
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
The house has gone quiet and the hallway holds its breath
One coat on the hook is the only thing that's left
Everything is settled, everything is still
You are the warmest thing in this house until

[Pre-chorus]
The dark outside the window is soft and far away
Nothing here will wake you before the light of day
So let your small hands rest now and drift where dreams will go

[Chorus]
Henry, Henry, the night is holding you tight
Nothing can find you, you're wrapped up in the light
Close now, Henry, let your breathing grow slow
Wherever sleep takes you, it's gentle when you go

[Verse 2]
The corridor is narrow but the love in it is wide
One small lamp is burning low beside your side
Somewhere past the doorway the whole wide world can wait
You are held here softly, you have nowhere you need to be

[Pre-chorus]
The dark outside the window is soft and far away
Nothing here will wake you before the light of day
So let your small hands rest now and drift where dreams will go

[Chorus]
Henry, Henry, the night is holding you tight
Nothing can find you, you're wrapped up in the light
Close now, Henry, let your breathing grow slow
Wherever sleep takes you, it's gentle when you go

[Bridge]
Every hook and every shadow keeps its quiet watch tonight
Nothing moves but sleep now, easing you from light

[Chorus]
Henry, Henry, the night is holding you tight
Nothing can find you, you're wrapped up in the light
Close now, Henry, let your breathing grow slow
Wherever sleep takes you, it's gentle when you go

[Outro]
The coat still hangs there, waiting for the morning light
Sleep now, Henry, you are safe with us tonight
