Night Bus Home
Style: Ambient wash

[Verse 1]
Wheels are humming soft beneath us, low and slow and round
Streetlights slide across your eyelids without a single sound
Nobody else awake to see how still you've grown
You are held here, you are safe here, never to be found wanting

[Pre-chorus]
Every stop we pass is quiet, every window dim
Rest your small hand on my sleeve, let the night begin
Close your eyes now, let the hum carry you to sleep

[Chorus]
Mia, Mia, the whole world's gone to rest
Nothing but the road ahead and you against my chest
Nia never sleeps this deep without someone near her
So sleep, my love, you are the warmest, dearest guest

[Verse 2]
Rain is tracing little rivers down the darkened glass
We'll be home before the last light of the evening's pass
Nothing in this rocking dark can ever pull you under
You're the softest kind of quiet that I've ever had

[Chorus]
Mia, Mia, the whole world's gone to rest
Nothing but the road ahead and you against my chest
Nia never sleeps this deep without someone near her
So sleep, my love, you are the warmest, dearest guest

[Bridge]
Hush now, let the engine be the only sound you keep
Nothing needs your waking, everything can wait for sleep

[Chorus]
Mia, Mia, the whole world's gone to rest
Nothing but the road ahead and you against my chest
Nia never sleeps this deep without someone near her
So sleep, my love, you are the warmest, dearest guest

[Outro]
Wheels still humming softly as we carry you on home
You were never lost tonight, you were never once alone
