Silver Line
Style: Accordion cradle

[Verse 1]
Far off a train hums low along its silver line
somewhere the wheels are clicking soft on joints of steel
your breath is slower than that far and steady sound
close your eyes now, Paisley, let the night be kind

[Pre-chorus]
The moon lays down a track of light across your bed
hush now, the whole wide dark is turning gentle
sleep is the station waiting just beyond your sigh

[Chorus]
Paisley, Paisley, the night has room for you
every silver mile tonight is leading home to you
you are held here, safe and easy
nothing in the dark can touch you, Paisley

[Verse 2]
Somewhere far a whistle fades to nothing but the hush
the tracks keep gleaming though no one walks them now
you are the warm and living heart of this small room
rest here, little one, there is nowhere you must rush

[Pre-chorus]
The moon lays down a track of light across your bed
hush now, the whole wide dark is turning gentle
sleep is the station waiting just beyond your sigh

[Chorus]
Paisley, Paisley, the night has room for you
every silver mile tonight is leading home to you
you are held here, safe and easy
nothing in the dark can touch you, Paisley

[Bridge]
Let the far off engine hum you low and slow
you were always worth this much quiet, this much care

[Chorus]
Paisley, Paisley, the night has room for you
every silver mile tonight is leading home to you
you are held here, safe and easy
nothing in the dark can touch you, Paisley

[Outro]
The tracks still gleam but the train has gone quiet now
sleep, Paisley, you are already home
