Verse 1
Dark feathers brush the glass where the frost is climbing slow The window turns to gold against the cold night air You are the warmest thing that this whole house will know Wrapped up and held so close, without a single care
Pre-chorus
Outside the wind is turning, but it cannot reach this room Every worry of the day is folding into rest And nothing in the dark tonight can touch you
Chorus
Barnaby, the night is only you and me now Barnaby, there's nothing here to fear Every star has bent down low to see how Bright you shine while sleep is drawing near
Verse 2
The glass holds back the frost the way my arms hold you Soft as feathers falling slow through winter's quiet air Nothing in this house tonight will let the cold get through You are held, you are kept, you are always someone's care
Pre-chorus
Outside the wind is turning, but it cannot reach this room Every worry of the day is folding into rest And nothing in the dark tonight can touch you
Chorus
Barnaby, the night is only you and me now Barnaby, there's nothing here to fear Every star has bent down low to see how Bright you shine while sleep is drawing near
Bridge
Close your eyes, the frost will keep its watch till morning light You are loved in every hour, waking or asleep
Chorus
Barnaby, the night is only you and me now Barnaby, there's nothing here to fear Every star has bent down low to see how Bright you shine while sleep is drawing near
Outro
The window holds its gold against the frost and feathered dark And you are held the same way, safe until the morning starts
Soot and Slumber
Glockenspiel · Twinkling · SimpleA hushed glockenspiel lullaby for settling a little one to sleep, built around the image of soot drifting down a quiet chimney into stillness.

Verse 1
Soot comes tumbling softly down the old grey brick tonight Settling slow and gentle like the fading of the light You are curled up warmer than the embers ever were Safe inside this quiet room where nothing needs to stir
Pre-chorus
Outside the wind is humming low against the windowpane Every worry of the day is turning small again Close your eyes and let the hush come rolling gently in
Chorus
Barnaby, the fire is banked and all the sparks are still Sleep is falling like the soot along the windowsill Nobody could hold a name as softly as I hold you Barnaby, the whole dark house is dreaming of you too
Verse 2
The chimney keeps its secrets in a coat of feathered grey Holding all the warmth it gathered from the fading day You are held the very same way, quiet and complete Wrapped in something older than the beating of your heartbeat
Pre-chorus
Somewhere down the hallway a small clock is beating slow Time has folded up its hands and let the evening go Close your eyes and let the hush come rolling gently in
Chorus
Barnaby, the fire is banked and all the sparks are still Sleep is falling like the soot along the windowsill Nobody could hold a name as softly as I hold you Barnaby, the whole dark house is dreaming of you too
Bridge
Grey on grey, the ash lies down to rest No one ever loved so plainly, quietly blessed
Chorus
Barnaby, the fire is banked and all the sparks are still Sleep is falling like the soot along the windowsill Nobody could hold a name as softly as I hold you Barnaby, the whole dark house is dreaming of you too
Outro
The grate has gone cool and the soot has settled deep Barnaby, so have you, so easy now to sleep
Wax and Ember
Cello cradle · Cello · Low · WarmA slow cello lullaby for settling a small child to sleep, watching candlelight melt down while the night gathers close.
Read the lyricsHide the lyrics
Verse 1
Watch the small flame breathe so softly by your bed tonight Wax runs slow across the saucer, blue and still Yellow smoke goes drifting upward, thin and light You are held here safe and steady, always will
Pre-chorus
Every drop falls slower now, the room grows warm and low Shadows soften into corners, letting go Rest is coming closer, closer, sweet and slow
Chorus
Barnaby, the candle's melting into calm Sleep is folding round you like a gentle arm Barnaby, no harm can find you here You are loved beyond the reach of any fear
Verse 2
The wick burns low but never once forgets to hold its glow Smoke curls upward, soft and slow, then fades from view Nothing in this quiet room can hurt you now Every breath you take is safe, is warm, is true
Chorus
Barnaby, the candle's melting into calm Sleep is folding round you like a gentle arm Barnaby, no harm can find you here You are loved beyond the reach of any fear
Bridge
Wax will pool and cool by morning light But you are held past dark, past day, past time
Chorus
Barnaby, the candle's melting into calm Sleep is folding round you like a gentle arm Barnaby, no harm can find you here You are loved beyond the reach of any fear
Outro
The smoke has settled soft and low above the blue Sleep now, Barnaby, this love stays here with you
