  Verse 1

  Down the quiet hall a small light stays awake for you Soft and low it glows to say that someone's watching too Close your eyes now, let the day slip off your shoulders slow Nothing in the dark tonight will ever touch you, love

  Pre-chorus

  Every hush of breath is drawing you in closer still Underneath the door the light will keep on burning warm Feel it wrap around you now as sleep begins to pull

  Chorus

  Cyrus, sleep is calling soft and low tonight Nothing in this house will ever dim your light Cyrus, you are held by every gentle beam Drift now into quiet, into softest dream

  Verse 2

  Shadows on the ceiling move so gently, they mean no harm Somewhere down the hallway love is standing at your door Rest your head, the whole wide house breathes slow around your bed You are wrapped in something warmer than the deepest sleep

  Pre-chorus

  Every hush of breath is drawing you in closer still Underneath the door the light will keep on burning warm Feel it wrap around you now as sleep begins to pull

  Chorus

  Cyrus, sleep is calling soft and low tonight Nothing in this house will ever dim your light Cyrus, you are held by every gentle beam Drift now into quiet, into softest dream

  Bridge

  Even when the hallway falls to darkness after all Someone still is near you, someone always will

  Chorus

  Cyrus, sleep is calling soft and low tonight Nothing in this house will ever dim your light Cyrus, you are held by every gentle beam Drift now into quiet, into softest dream

  Outro

  Somewhere down the hallway that small light still glows for you Sleep now, you are loved beyond what any light could show

  Verse 1

  Rain is drawing quiet lines along the metal frame Soft as breath against the glass it never makes a sound Close your eyes and let the hush come gather round your name Nothing here tonight will ever let you down

  Pre-chorus

  Every drop is finding its slow way back home Down the pane and past the sill to somewhere warm and low So let your busy little day begin to still and slow

  Chorus

  Cyrus, hush now, let the rain sing you to sleep Nothing out there in the dark will ever reach this room You are held here safer than a secret you could keep Cyrus, sleep now, warm beneath the falling gloom

  Verse 2

  Every light along the street has dimmed its eye to rest Only one small lamp still burns to watch you drifting far You are curled up smaller than a bird within its nest Wrapped in more soft warmth than any blanket ever was

  Chorus

  Cyrus, hush now, let the rain sing you to sleep Nothing out there in the dark will ever reach this room You are held here safer than a secret you could keep Cyrus, sleep now, warm beneath the falling gloom

  Bridge

  Let the window keep its watch while you let go Somebody stays awake so all your dreaming can be slow

  Chorus

  Cyrus, hush now, let the rain sing you to sleep Nothing out there in the dark will ever reach this room You are held here safer than a secret you could keep Cyrus, sleep now, warm beneath the falling gloom

  Outro

  Still the rain runs down in thin lines past the frame Sleep now, little one, and carry nothing but your name

• Far Off Train

  A slow, breath-quiet lullaby that borrows a distant train's rhythm to rock a little one to sleep, sung by whoever is holding them close tonight.

  Verse 1

  Somewhere out past the fields a train is humming low Carrying voices you will never need to know You are held here where the lamplight barely moves at all Safer than any sound that far off train could call

  Pre-chorus

  Let the wheels on the tracks turn soft into a hush Let your breathing slow to match the quiet rush Something warm is staying here while something far goes on

  Chorus

  Cyrus, the dark is only resting over you tonight Nothing out there needs you, nothing pulls you from this light Cyrus, the whole wide night has curled up soft and tight Close your eyes and let it hold you until morning's bright

  Verse 2

  The fields are getting darker but the room stays warm and small You are wrapped in something steadier than that distant call Every rattle down the tracks is fading out of reach While you rest in arms that never learned to leave

  Bridge

  Far off wheels keep turning on into the black But this small room is the one place love won't send you back Whatever moves beyond us, you are staying right in place

  Chorus

  Cyrus, the dark is only resting over you tonight Nothing out there needs you, nothing pulls you from this light Cyrus, the whole wide night has curled up soft and tight Close your eyes and let it hold you until morning's bright

  Outro

  The train has gone quiet somewhere past the sleeping ground And here you rest, held closer than any far off sound
