Light on the Ceiling
Style: Gentle acoustic

[Verse 1]
A far off light is sliding soft across the ceiling white
it wanders once and fades again like it was never there
nothing in this room will ever come to bring you harm
you are curled up safe and warm inside this quiet air

[Chorus]
Zoey, close your eyes now, let the darkness hum you low
sleep is only kindness folding gently over you
stars are keeping watch tonight though you don't need to know
little Zoey, drift away, there's nothing you must do

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the window cars are humming down the lane
every beam that passes by is only passing through
none of it can touch you, none of it can stay
you are held much closer than the night could ever know

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let your breathing slow to match the falling dark
the whole wide world is settling to something soft and small
and sleep is waiting gently just beyond the edge of thought

[Chorus]
Zoey, close your eyes now, let the darkness hum you low
sleep is only kindness folding gently over you
stars are keeping watch tonight though you don't need to know
little Zoey, drift away, there's nothing you must do

[Bridge]
Rest inside the hush that only night can give
you were loved before this day and will be loved beyond it

[Chorus]
Zoey, close your eyes now, let the darkness hum you low
sleep is only kindness folding gently over you
stars are keeping watch tonight though you don't need to know
little Zoey, drift away, there's nothing you must do

[Outro]
That far off light has gone now, gentle as it came
sleep well, little Zoey, you are safe within this name
