  Verse 1

  Down through the floorboards the old clock is ticking slow Counting the minutes so quietly, soft and low Nothing can hurry this house once the lamps go dim And every one of those minutes is holding you, Bryson

  Pre-chorus

  Close up your eyes now, the ticking will carry you far Nothing tonight is as far as it seems from where you are Let the whole house breathe slow while the dark turns to warm

  Chorus

  Bryson, the night has got nowhere to rush you along Somewhere downstairs the clock hums like a song Nothing will wake you, nothing will harm You are the reason this house feels so calm, Bryson

  Verse 2

  Wrapped in the quiet where the wooden hands turn round Even the shadows are settling without a sound Rest your whole weight, let the mattress hold on to you This is a house built around keeping you safe, Bryson

  Chorus

  Bryson, the night has got nowhere to rush you along Somewhere downstairs the clock hums like a song Nothing will wake you, nothing will harm You are the reason this house feels so calm, Bryson

  Bridge

  Every slow tick is a promise that morning will come Sleep on, there is nowhere you need to be but here

  Chorus

  Bryson, the night has got nowhere to rush you along Somewhere downstairs the clock hums like a song Nothing will wake you, nothing will harm You are the reason this house feels so calm, Bryson

  Outro

  Somewhere below you the clock keeps its patient, slow beat Sleep now, my Bryson, the whole house is keeping you sweet

  Verse 1

  A faint yellow light is bleeding soft through the blue wool tonight Under the dark duvet the whole wide world goes still Nothing can reach you now, tucked in and held so tight Sleep is a gentle valley and you're resting on the hill

  Pre-chorus

  The hours are turning slow as the house breathes out its last Every worry of the day is folding small and folding fast Close your eyes now, my love, let the quiet hold you close

  Chorus

  Bryson, the night is only warmth wrapped tight around your skin Nothing can touch you here where the soft dark has just begun Sleep and let the hours pass like a slow tide rolling in Bryson, you are the calm this whole house waits upon

  Verse 2

  Somewhere a lamp is low and it colours the room like honey Your breath goes even now, a small and steady tide There's nothing in this dark that isn't safe or isn't sunny You are the warmest thing that any night could hide

  Bridge

  Rest now, there's no clock that matters, no reason left to keep Just the shape of you, sinking softer into sleep

  Chorus

  Bryson, the night is only warmth wrapped tight around your skin Nothing can touch you here where the soft dark has just begun Sleep and let the hours pass like a slow tide rolling in Bryson, you are the calm this whole house waits upon

  Outro

  The yellow light dims low but it never leaves you alone Sleep well, little one, you are already home

• Settle Now, Bryson

  Rocking chair waltz · Waltz · Rocking · Slow

  A slow rocking chair waltz for settling a little one at night, built around the quiet hush of a house going still. Sing it soft, sing it slow, at the end of the day.

  Verse 1

  Dust is drifting soft down the cold and sleeping chimney Falling like the hours have finally let you go Nothing in this house is asking anything of you now Only shadows settling gentle, quiet and slow

  Pre-chorus

  The fire has gone down but the warmth is staying near you Every little sound outside is turning into rest Close your eyes now, let the whole wide world grow softer

  Chorus

  Bryson, the night has wrapped its arms around this room Nothing can reach you, nothing can touch what's blessed You are the calm this whole house has been leaning on Bryson, you can let go now, you can rest

  Verse 2

  Somewhere above a chimney stands quiet in the darkness Holding its breath the way the whole night seems to hold Nobody needs a single thing from you but sleeping You are so loved you could never feel the cold

  Pre-chorus

  The fire has gone down but the warmth is staying near you Every little sound outside is turning into rest Close your eyes now, let the whole wide world grow softer

  Chorus

  Bryson, the night has wrapped its arms around this room Nothing can reach you, nothing can touch what's blessed You are the calm this whole house has been leaning on Bryson, you can let go now, you can rest

  Bridge

  However far the dark stretches out beyond this window You are held so closely nothing here can come undone

  Chorus

  Bryson, the night has wrapped its arms around this room Nothing can reach you, nothing can touch what's blessed You are the calm this whole house has been leaning on Bryson, you can let go now, you can rest

  Outro

  Somewhere the dust still settles soft inside a quiet chimney And here you are settling too, held safe and warm and still
