Thin Smoke, Soft Sleep
Style: Music box

[Verse 1]
Smoke goes up through the old iron pipe so slow
Curling into shadows where the embers glow
You are warmer than any fire could ever be
Wrapped up safe in the quiet, close to me

[Pre-chorus]
The house breathes soft and the night is turning kind
Every worry of the day is left behind
Let the hush come closer, let it fill the room

[Chorus]
Marjorie, the smoke drifts high and slow tonight
Marjorie, you're held here safe and out of sight of fright
Nothing in the dark can ever reach this bed
Rest your Marjorie eyes and lay your gentle head

[Verse 2]
Shadows on the wall are only shapes that play
Nothing that they show you means to steal away
You are so much stronger than the smallest fear
Safe inside this warmth with everyone who loves you near

[Pre-chorus]
The house breathes soft and the night is turning kind
Every worry of the day is left behind
Let the hush come closer, let it fill the room

[Chorus]
Marjorie, the smoke drifts high and slow tonight
Marjorie, you're held here safe and out of sight of fright
Nothing in the dark can ever reach this bed
Rest your Marjorie eyes and lay your gentle head

[Bridge]
Nothing has to happen, nothing has to start
You can simply rest here, safe within my heart
The whole wide world can wait outside till morning comes

[Chorus]
Marjorie, the smoke drifts high and slow tonight
Marjorie, you're held here safe and out of sight of fright
Nothing in the dark can ever reach this bed
Rest your Marjorie eyes and lay your gentle head

[Outro]
The smoke has gone to join the quiet, endless sky
Sleep now, Marjorie, and let the night pass by
