  Verse 1

  The last of the fire is sliding soft and grey and slow Down through the bars where all the day's light went You are the warmth still glowing after embers lose their glow Held safe inside a stillness heaven sent

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, let the dark come gentle, let it hold you near Every little sound is fading, soft and low Nothing in this whole wide night has any cause for fear

  Chorus

  Amaya, sleep is calling soft as rain upon the glass You are held here closer than the embers to the fire Nothing in the shadows has the power to touch or pass Amaya, you're the warmth this whole house needs to breathe and tire

  Verse 2

  The ash falls down so quiet it could never wake a soul You are louder in my heart than any flame Somewhere past the window slow grey clouds begin to roll But nothing in the dark can ever touch your name

  Chorus

  Amaya, sleep is calling soft as rain upon the glass You are held here closer than the embers to the fire Nothing in the shadows has the power to touch or pass Amaya, you're the warmth this whole house needs to breathe and tire

  Bridge

  Rain is falling gentle on the roof above your head Piano notes are drifting slow to find your bed

  Chorus

  Amaya, sleep is calling soft as rain upon the glass You are held here closer than the embers to the fire Nothing in the shadows has the power to touch or pass Amaya, you're the warmth this whole house needs to breathe and tire

  Outro

  The grate is dark and quiet now, the last of ash has fallen You are the ember still glowing warm beneath it all

  Verse 1

  Far off the white foam washes soft over dark and quiet stones The sky has gone the colour of a hundred sleepy homes Nothing in this whole wide world could ever ask you to be scared Close your eyes now, let the evening carry you where warmth still grows

  Pre-chorus

  Every wave that rolls in comes in slower than the last The light is nearly finished, letting go of what has passed Just breathe now, easy, while the quiet gathers you at last

  Chorus

  Amaya, the night has wrapped its arms around this room There is nowhere safer than the place where you are held so soon You are the warmest thing this whole dark evening ever knew Sleep now, Amaya, let the stars keep watch beneath the moon

  Verse 2

  The pebbles do not mind the water coming back again and again They only know the softness, never once the ache or strain You are held the same way, gently, over and over through the dark Nothing about this love was ever something you would need to gain

  Chorus

  Amaya, the night has wrapped its arms around this room There is nowhere safer than the place where you are held so soon You are the warmest thing this whole dark evening ever knew Sleep now, Amaya, let the stars keep watch beneath the moon

  Bridge

  No storm out there can find its way past this quiet door You are loved the way the shore is loved by every tide before Rest here, let the whole night settle soft around your name

  Chorus

  Amaya, the night has wrapped its arms around this room There is nowhere safer than the place where you are held so soon You are the warmest thing this whole dark evening ever knew Sleep now, Amaya, let the stars keep watch beneath the moon

  Outro

  Somewhere the white foam still turns soft over sleeping stones And you are held as gently, safe and warm and never alone

  Watch how the branches sway slow on the ceiling above you Soft as a hand that keeps smoothing the quiet to soothe you Nothing tonight means you ever need worry or hide Sleep is a boat and I'm rowing you gently inside

  Close now the day and let go of its noise and its weather Nothing can find you while we are here holding together Rest now, my love, while the dark turns as soft as a

  Verse 2

  Shadows are only the branches at play on the plaster Nothing that moves in this house could ever come faster Than the love that sits here while your breathing goes deep Steady and sure as a tide pulling you down to sleep

  Pre-chorus

  Close now the day and let go of its noise and its weather Nothing can find you while we are here holding together Rest now, my love, while the dark turns as soft as a

  Chorus

  Amaya, the night has gone gentle for you There's nowhere as safe as this warm room for two Sleep, Amaya, and let the hours run slower Long as you're here, the whole world can hold over

  Bridge

  However far you drift, I will stay to keep watch However dark it gets, this love won't run out or stop

  Chorus

  Amaya, the night has gone gentle for you There's nowhere as safe as this warm room for two Sleep, Amaya, and let the hours run slower Long as you're here, the whole world can hold over

  Outro

  The branches keep swaying so soft on the ceiling Sleep now, my love, held close in that feeling
