The Last Stop Home
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
A strap swings slow above the seats where you lie curled and warm
Every light outside the window drifts by soft as falling snow
Nothing in this whole wide night can reach you here
You are held so gently, safe from any storm

[Pre-chorus]
Your breathing slows to match the wheels that hum below
Rocking easy, rocking sweet, the journey nearly done
Close your eyes, we're almost to the place you're going

[Chorus]
Holly, Holly, rest your head, the night is soft and slow
Nobody in this whole wide world was ever loved you so
Let the hush of home wrap round you, warm and low
Holly, you're the reason every light will always glow

[Verse 2]
Dark blue seats have carried you while dreams began to rise
Somewhere past the glass the streets are turning into skies
You don't need to know the way, just let your eyelids fall
Safe inside this rumbling hush, no need to wonder why

[Chorus]
Holly, Holly, rest your head, the night is soft and slow
Nobody in this whole wide world was ever loved you so
Let the hush of home wrap round you, warm and low
Holly, you're the reason every light will always glow

[Bridge]
Hold on to nothing but the warmth against your side
There's nowhere in this whole night that you need to hide

[Chorus]
Holly, Holly, rest your head, the night is soft and slow
Nobody in this whole wide world was ever loved you so
Let the hush of home wrap round you, warm and low
Holly, you're the reason every light will always glow

[Outro]
That strap still sways above you as the last stop nears
Sleep now, Holly, you are carried gently home from here
