  Verse 1

  Wool socks on the floorboards, easing every creak to nothing I cross the dark room slow so nothing wakes you before you're ready the wooden rail is warm beneath my hand and still my heart keeps time with you, my darling

  Pre-chorus

  The house breathes soft around us, every corner turned to shadow and nothing in this whole wide night could ever reach you here so let your small hands loosen, let the day slip off your shoulders

  Chorus

  Aurora, close your eyes now, let the quiet come and hold you nothing waits beyond this room but stars I've told you you are the warmest thing this house has ever known so sleep, Aurora, sleep, and let the dark enfold you

  Verse 2

  Somewhere past the window frost is settling on the garden but here the air stays gentle, kept just right for you I'll stand here till your breathing slows to nothing because there's nowhere else I'd rather be than near you

  Bridge

  Let every worry of the day dissolve like sugar into warm milk you don't need to carry anything but sleep tonight

  Chorus

  Aurora, close your eyes now, let the quiet come and hold you nothing waits beyond this room but stars I've told you you are the warmest thing this house has ever known so sleep, Aurora, sleep, and let the dark enfold you

  Outro

  The floor stays quiet now beneath my wool socked feet and you sleep on, held safe, exactly where you're meant to be

  Verse 1

  Frost is drawing ferns across the window while you dream Soft and slow the old house settles into rest Nothing in the dark tonight is what it seems You are held here safer than a bird within a nest

  Pre-chorus

  Somewhere past the glass the whole cold world is turning Here inside there's only breath and lamplight low Close your eyes, there's nowhere warmer you'll be learning

  Chorus

  Aurora, the night has folded soft around you now Quiet finds you gentle as a hand upon your brow Aurora, I will keep the watch and show you how Nothing in this darkness comes to trouble you, I vow

  Verse 2

  Floorboards creak their old and comfortable song for you Every little sound tonight is only saying stay Warmth is curled beneath the blankets, through and through Sleep is just a river carrying the day away

  Pre-chorus

  Somewhere past the glass the whole cold world is turning Here inside there's only breath and lamplight low Close your eyes, there's nowhere warmer you'll be learning

  Chorus

  Aurora, the night has folded soft around you now Quiet finds you gentle as a hand upon your brow Aurora, I will keep the watch and show you how Nothing in this darkness comes to trouble you, I vow

  Bridge

  Let the frost keep spreading quiet on the pane Nothing cold can ever find its way to you again

  Chorus

  Aurora, the night has folded soft around you now Quiet finds you gentle as a hand upon your brow Aurora, I will keep the watch and show you how Nothing in this darkness comes to trouble you, I vow

  Outro

  Frost will keep on drawing while the house breathes low and slow Sleep now, little one, and let the whole night simply go

  Verse 1

  Soot comes tumbling soft and slow behind the wire screen Every ember dims a little, giving up its light Close your eyes and let the warmth still hold you where you've been Nothing in this room will stir or wake tonight

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, let the last spark settle out of sight Nothing here will ask you for another sound All that's left to do is drift toward

  Chorus

  Aurora, the dark is only kindness dressed in grey Sleep is just a door that opens soft and low Close your hand around the warmth that stays Aurora, I will keep it glowing while you go

  Verse 2

  Somewhere past the guard a small flame bows and disappears Nothing that goes quiet ever truly goes too far Rest inside the hush that gathers up your fears You are held as gently as a low and steady star

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, let the last spark settle out of sight Nothing here will ask you for another sound All that's left to do is drift toward

  Chorus

  Aurora, the dark is only kindness dressed in grey Sleep is just a door that opens soft and low Close your hand around the warmth that stays Aurora, I will keep it glowing while you go

  Bridge

  Even after light has folded into black I will still be near you, watching, holding on

  Chorus

  Aurora, the dark is only kindness dressed in grey Sleep is just a door that opens soft and low Close your hand around the warmth that stays Aurora, I will keep it glowing while you go

  Outro

  Somewhere the last soot settles soft behind the guard You are already drifting, already safe, already far
