Down the Quiet Hall
Style: Flute and pad

[Verse 1]
Down a hallway of yellow light we softly go tonight
Past the doors that hold their breath and dim bulbs glowing bright
You are held so close against the coming of the dark
Every step we take is safe, every step will leave its mark

[Pre-chorus]
Somewhere past those quiet doors the whole wide world can wait
Nothing needs to hurry now, no reason and no rate
Close your eyes and let me carry you the rest of the way

[Chorus]
Victor, Victor, rest your head on me
Sleep is just a picture that you're finally free to see
You're the victor of this small and gentle fight
Victor, drift away, I'm holding on tonight

[Verse 2]
Underneath the dim bulbs everything is soft and slow
You don't need to see the path, you only need to know
Warmth is wrapped around you like a mixture made for you
Nothing in the shadows here has anything to do

[Bridge]
Let the carpet hush the sound of every worried thing
Let this hallway be the quiet only sleep can bring

[Chorus]
Victor, Victor, rest your head on me
Sleep is just a picture that you're finally free to see
You're the victor of this small and gentle fight
Victor, drift away, I'm holding on tonight

[Outro]
The hallway dims to nothing but the softness of your breath
Sleep now, little victor, past the doors, past everything else
