A Lantern for You
Style: Harp lullaby

[Verse 1]
Somewhere a lantern is glowing low in the garden tonight
Dew has settled soft on a web that the spider wove
You are the reason the dark has turned so gentle and mild
Rest now, and let the whole garden slow

[Pre-chorus]
Every small light in that garden is watching over your bed
Hushing the wind till it settles down to a murmur instead
Close your eyes now, let the quiet in

[Chorus]
Noah, the lantern is burning soft just for you
Nothing can reach you, no shadow gets through
Sleep is a garden where nothing feels far
Noah, you're held like the warmest star

[Verse 2]
Silver is caught in the web where the moonlight likes to rest
Nothing is sharp here, the night has gone velvet and slow
You are as safe as that thread swaying easy in its nest
Breathe with the hush of the leaves as they go

[Pre-chorus]
Every small light in that garden is watching over your bed
Hushing the wind till it settles down to a murmur instead
Close your eyes now, let the quiet in

[Chorus]
Noah, the lantern is burning soft just for you
Nothing can reach you, no shadow gets through
Sleep is a garden where nothing feels far
Noah, you're held like the warmest star

[Bridge]
Let the glow settle low where you lie
Nothing will wake you, nothing will pass by

[Chorus]
Noah, the lantern is burning soft just for you
Nothing can reach you, no shadow gets through
Sleep is a garden where nothing feels far
Noah, you're held like the warmest star

[Outro]
Somewhere that lantern keeps glowing on, steady and low and true
And all through the night, it is glowing for you
