Ripples on the Wall
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
Watch the pale light ripple soft along the wall above your head
Water somewhere far off sends its glow to find you here
Everything is quiet now, and you are warm inside your bed
Nothing in this whole wide night will ever bring you fear

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes and let the hush come settle on your chest
Feel the calm collecting slow like snow upon a hill
I will stay so near to you, right here to guard your rest

[Chorus]
Holden, sleep is calling soft and low and gold
Dream a while beneath this gentle light
You are held by everything this house can hold
Holden, drift on through the quiet night

[Verse 2]
Somewhere far the water moves and paints the plaster pale and slow
Just like that the day breaks off and lets its worries go
You are wrapped in something warmer than a blanket ever sewed
Safe as any small thing sleeping ever gets to know

[Chorus]
Holden, sleep is calling soft and low and gold
Dream a while beneath this gentle light
You are held by everything this house can hold
Holden, drift on through the quiet night

[Bridge]
No harm can find you where this soft light falls
You are the dearest thing that fills this room

[Chorus]
Holden, sleep is calling soft and low and gold
Dream a while beneath this gentle light
You are held by everything this house can hold
Holden, drift on through the quiet night

[Outro]
Let the ripple on the wall keep watch till morning comes
Sleep now, Holden, loved through every hour that hums
