  Verse 1

  Old cane is creaking soft beneath the wool tonight Rocking you slower than the fading candlelight You settle deeper with each breath you let go Wrapped in the hush that only sleepy houses know

  Pre-chorus

  Hear how the floorboards hum a tune so worn and low Feel how the blanket holds you close and holds you slow Nothing tonight can touch the peace we're sinking into

  Chorus

  Caroline, rest your eyes, let the whole wide world stay still Nobody's love for you could ever bend or spill Sleep now the way the moon holds steady in the sky Caroline, you are held, so soft, so safe, so nigh

  Verse 2

  Somewhere a door creaks shut and locks the cold outside You've got the warmest corner, nothing left to hide Little one, your breathing slows to match the chair Every small worry melting out into the air

  Bridge

  Rock and creak, rock and creak, the same old gentle song Nothing about this love has ever once been wrong

  Chorus

  Caroline, rest your eyes, let the whole wide world stay still Nobody's love for you could ever bend or spill Sleep now the way the moon holds steady in the sky Caroline, you are held, so soft, so safe, so nigh

  Outro

  Let the old chair rock until the creaking fades to sleep Caroline, you are loved too deep for you to keep

  Verse 1

  The little speaker hums its quiet, hissing sound filling up the room with something soft and low a small and steady static spreading all around the gentlest kind of hush to help you go

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, let the humming carry you away nothing in the dark tonight can reach where you belong and I am staying near until the edge of day

  Chorus

  Caroline, the night has room for you to shine every hush and hum was made to keep you warm Caroline, your breathing finds its own design safe inside the quiet, far from any storm

  Verse 2

  The speaker crackles soft, a friendly kind of noise nothing here to fear, just gentle sound and light it hums along beside your small and steady poise holding back the corners of the deep, wide night

  Chorus

  Caroline, the night has room for you to shine every hush and hum was made to keep you warm Caroline, your breathing finds its own design safe inside the quiet, far from any storm

  Bridge

  Rest now, you are held here, nothing asked of you at all just the soft and steady static like a gentle, low downpour let it wrap around you, let your busy thoughts grow small you are loved beyond the reaching of that little speaker's floor

  Chorus

  Caroline, the night has room for you to shine every hush and hum was made to keep you warm Caroline, your breathing finds its own design safe inside the quiet, far from any storm

  Outro

  The little speaker quiets as your breathing slows to rest sleep now, Caroline, you always were the best

  Verse 1

  Watch the raindrops slipping slowly down the glass tonight and the lamp outside is glowing soft and low and gold and bright nothing in the dark can ever reach this room you are wrapped in warmth and you are held so right

  Chorus

  Caroline, the night has come to hold you soft and slow Caroline, there's nowhere safer for your heart to go close your eyes, let every worry simply melt away you are loved beyond what any words could ever show

  Verse 2

  Every drop that falls is just the sky come down to rest and the window hums a lullaby it never has confessed nothing out there matters more than what is here you are what this quiet golden light was blessed

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, let the yellow glow be all you ever need feel the warmth around you like a promise or a seed something soft is rising now, and calling you to sleep

  Chorus

  Caroline, the night has come to hold you soft and slow Caroline, there's nowhere safer for your heart to go close your eyes, let every worry simply melt away you are loved beyond what any words could ever show

  Bridge

  Sleep is just a river and you're drifting out to sea there is nothing waiting for you but the way things ought to be

  Chorus

  Caroline, the night has come to hold you soft and slow Caroline, there's nowhere safer for your heart to go close your eyes, let every worry simply melt away you are loved beyond what any words could ever show

  Outro

  The glass still holds its raindrops as the lamp begins to dim and you are safe inside this quiet, held and loved within
