  Verse 1

  Somewhere the water is folding soft under the dark and nobody needs to be anywhere else but here You are the light I keep watching for on that shore small as the foam, and to me you are always clear

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, the tide has nowhere to be let every worry go drifting away with the foam and settle deeper as the dark starts to deepen

  Chorus

  Aspen, the night is only holding you near nothing can reach you, nothing can touch what won't happen Sleep now, my Aspen, safe as the shore in the dark warm as the glow on the water, soft as it's happen

  Verse 2

  Far off a light is glowing faint on the pebbles patient the way that love can wait through the dark You breathe so slow, like waves that finally settle and I could watch you forever, quiet, and calm

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, the tide has nowhere to be let every worry go drifting away with the foam and settle deeper as the dark starts to deepen

  Chorus

  Aspen, the night is only holding you near nothing can reach you, nothing can touch what won't happen Sleep now, my Aspen, safe as the shore in the dark warm as the glow on the water, soft as it's happen

  Bridge

  Nothing will hurry you, nothing will wake you too soon only the hush of the water, only the calm Rest, little one, while the dark holds so gently steady as tides that will never once harm

  Chorus

  Aspen, the night is only holding you near nothing can reach you, nothing can touch what won't happen Sleep now, my Aspen, safe as the shore in the dark warm as the glow on the water, soft as it's happen

  Outro

  Somewhere the foam still glows soft on the stones and here you sleep on, safe as the shore, safe as home

  Verse 1

  A little gold light spills under the door tonight Painting soft shapes on the carpet by your bed Nothing can reach you while you're held so tight There's a whole quiet world wrapped around your head

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, let the day go still The house is breathing slow and soft and low Sleep is coming gentle, coming when you will

  Chorus

  Aspen, the light is watching over you Steady as a heartbeat, warm as summer's glow Nothing in the dark can ever trouble you Aspen, my darling, it's time to let go slow

  Verse 2

  The shadows on the carpet only mean to play They dance a little while then settle down to rest Every worry from the day can drift away You are the softest thing and you are truly blessed

  Chorus

  Aspen, the light is watching over you Steady as a heartbeat, warm as summer's glow Nothing in the dark can ever trouble you Aspen, my darling, it's time to let go slow

  Bridge

  Hush now, the whole night leans in close to guard you Every star above has learned your name by heart

  Chorus

  Aspen, the light is watching over you Steady as a heartbeat, warm as summer's glow Nothing in the dark can ever trouble you Aspen, my darling, it's time to let go slow

  Outro

  The gold light still spills soft beneath the door Sleep now, you are loved, and you are so much more

  Verse 1

  A thin white beam slips through the blue cotton sheets tonight Quiet as breath, and gentle as the softest kind of light It moves so slow across the room to find where you lie Like it was sent to watch you while the hours drift by

  Pre-chorus

  Every shadow in this room has learned to hold you kind Nothing here will hurry you or rush your sleepy mind So let the light keep drifting low while your eyes start to close

  Chorus

  Aspen, the whole wide dark leans down to keep you warm Nothing can reach you here, nothing can bring you harm Aspen, you're held so close the night can barely move There's nowhere safer built than this soft and sleepy groove

  Verse 2

  The cotton folds around you like a wave that learned to rest Holding you the way the tide holds shells against its chest No sound but breathing, slow and even, filling up the room While that pale beam settles gently in the gathering gloom

  Bridge

  Sleep can be a small light, steady, learning how to stay Just enough to see you're safe until the break of day

  Chorus

  Aspen, the whole wide dark leans down to keep you warm Nothing can reach you here, nothing can bring you harm Aspen, you're held so close the night can barely move There's nowhere safer built than this soft and sleepy groove

  Outro

  That beam will still be waiting when the morning comes to call Long after sleep has folded you the softest way of all
