  Verse 1

  A narrow line of yellow light falls soft across the floor Resting there upon the old wool rug so still and warm You watch it fade the way a sleepy little sigh does Nothing in this house tonight can ever bring you harm

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, let the small light go The dark that comes is kind and moves so slow Everything you need is here, right by your side

  Chorus

  Alaia, the night is only resting over you Somewhere past the window stars are holding on Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to worry Alaia, sleep is where you're safe till dawn

  Verse 2

  Shadows on the rug are turning softer than a whisper Breathing slows to match the hush that fills the air You are held here closer than the warmth beneath the blankets Loved here deeper than a small heart knows to care

  Chorus

  Alaia, the night is only resting over you Somewhere past the window stars are holding on Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to worry Alaia, sleep is where you're safe till dawn

  Bridge

  Rest now, let the quiet carry all you are Drift beyond the ceiling to the farthest star

  Chorus

  Alaia, the night is only resting over you Somewhere past the window stars are holding on Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to worry Alaia, sleep is where you're safe till dawn

  Outro

  That thin line of light has gone but you are golden still Sleep now, love is all that fills this quiet room

  Verse 1

  Close your eyes now, let the heavy fog roll in soft and slow Nothing out there in the dark can touch you here, you know Somewhere a light is turning, patient, wide and low I will be your steady beam wherever you go

  Chorus

  Alaia, the night is wide but you are held so near Sleep is only quiet water, nothing here to fear Through the fog and through the hush my love will find you, Alaia Rest now, sweet Alaia, morning always finds you here

  Verse 2

  Every wave outside is humming you a low and gentle song The dark is just a blanket, soft and endless, drawing long Nothing in this whole wide night could ever do you wrong I will keep the light turned toward you all night long

  Pre-chorus

  Let your breathing slow to match the tide that pulls and sighs Let the heavy fog roll over all your worries and goodbyes Close your eyes, my love, and feel the warmth that never dies

  Chorus

  Alaia, the night is wide but you are held so near Sleep is only quiet water, nothing here to fear Through the fog and through the hush my love will find you, Alaia Rest now, sweet Alaia, morning always finds you here

  Bridge

  No storm can ever reach the place where you are lying now Somewhere far off a light keeps turning, making its slow vow

  Chorus

  Alaia, the night is wide but you are held so near Sleep is only quiet water, nothing here to fear Through the fog and through the hush my love will find you, Alaia Rest now, sweet Alaia, morning always finds you here

  Outro

  Sleep now, the fog is soft and the light still turns for you Close your eyes, Alaia, I am here the whole night through

  Verse 1

  The kettle's gone quiet but I still feel it glowing near you and that small flame is nothing next to what I owe you the hum in the dark is soft and low and steady this whole house breathes slower now that you're ready

  Pre-chorus

  Let your shoulders sink and let your fingers loosen let the last of daylight leave you without any reason just the warmth still folded soft around your name

  Chorus

  Alaia, the night has come to hold you every quiet corner of this house was made to fold you Alaia, nothing here will wake you only stillness now, and love enough to make you

  Verse 2

  Somewhere in the kitchen the copper's turning cooler and I am standing near you like a patient old fool watching how your breathing finds its own slow rhyme matching every hush of this unwinding time

  Pre-chorus

  Let your shoulders sink and let your fingers loosen let the last of daylight leave you without any reason just the warmth still folded soft around your name

  Chorus

  Alaia, the night has come to hold you every quiet corner of this house was made to fold you Alaia, nothing here will wake you only stillness now, and love enough to make you

  Bridge

  No clock is ticking loud enough to matter no far off sound can climb this high or scatter only the dark, and only my low humming only you here, and morning slowly coming

  Chorus

  Alaia, the night has come to hold you every quiet corner of this house was made to fold you Alaia, nothing here will wake you only stillness now, and love enough to make you

  Outro

  The kettle sits forgotten, its little light gone dim but you are warm and held and never far from him
