  Verse 1

  White flakes are settling soft against the darkened pane tonight and somewhere in the corner low pipes are ticking warm and slight the whole wide world outside has slowed to a hush of falling snow and you are held here safe where every worry loses its bite

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, let the ticking pipes sing low and slow feel how the warmth is gathering soft around you here this is the hour when all the little fears just go

  Chorus

  Dennis, the night is wrapping gentle round you now hush now, Dennis, nothing here will ever harm you somehow sleep is a quiet river and you're drifting on its glow Dennis, my love is deeper than this snow

  Verse 2

  The glass holds back the cold while you stay warm beneath your covers the frost is only drawing pictures meant for no one else but you and every flake that settles is a hush too soft to wake you so rest, the whole small world tonight belongs to only you

  Chorus

  Dennis, the night is wrapping gentle round you now hush now, Dennis, nothing here will ever harm you somehow sleep is a quiet river and you're drifting on its glow Dennis, my love is deeper than this snow

  Bridge

  Let the pipes keep ticking soft, their small and steady song you are held here closer than you'll ever need to know

  Chorus

  Dennis, the night is wrapping gentle round you now hush now, Dennis, nothing here will ever harm you somehow sleep is a quiet river and you're drifting on its glow Dennis, my love is deeper than this snow

  Outro

  The flakes are settling slower now against the quiet glass and you are drifting softer still, held safe until the dawn

  Verse 1

  The stripes on the wall are melting soft into grey while the last bit of light slowly slips away your door stands half open, so nothing feels far and you know that you're held just the way that things are

  Chorus

  Dennis, my love, let the quiet come near close up your eyes, there is nothing to fear Dennis, the dark is a blanket, not a wall and you are the safest thing here of them all

  Verse 2

  Somewhere beyond that old door in the hall a house settles down like a slow breath at all you don't need to wonder what waits in the dim this whole sleepy house folds up gentle round him

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, the shadows are only for resting no need for your eyes to keep testing just let your small breathing go soft and go slow

  Chorus

  Dennis, my love, let the quiet come near close up your eyes, there is nothing to fear Dennis, the dark is a blanket, not a wall and you are the safest thing here of them all

  Bridge

  Even the wallpaper's given up trying to shine it's letting the night have its slow, easy time so let your held breath finally settle and fall

  Chorus

  Dennis, my love, let the quiet come near close up your eyes, there is nothing to fear Dennis, the dark is a blanket, not a wall and you are the safest thing here of them all

  Outro

  The stripes on the wall have gone soft into night sleep well, little one, you were always the light

  Verse 1

  The water has gone quiet under the small dim light One bubble leans and settles, taking its own sweet time Nothing in this room is asking you to hurry tonight Only warmth around you, only this hum of mine

  Pre-chorus

  Your eyes are getting heavy, soft as the fading foam Let every little worry drift and slowly disappear There's nowhere in the world tonight as safe as home

  Chorus

  Dennis, close your eyes now, let the whole house rest Nothing out there in the dark can reach this bed You are held here gently, you are always blessed Dennis, hush now, dennis, lay your sleepy head

  Verse 2

  The bulb above is dimming like a tired golden eye Watching all the bubbles going soft, then going still Your breathing finds the same slow rhythm, soft and shy Matching every quiet moment however the night may spill

  Pre-chorus

  Your eyes are getting heavy, soft as the fading foam Let every little worry drift and slowly disappear There's nowhere in the world tonight as safe as home

  Chorus

  Dennis, close your eyes now, let the whole house rest Nothing out there in the dark can reach this bed You are held here gently, you are always blessed Dennis, hush now, dennis, lay your sleepy head

  Bridge

  Somewhere between the water and the dark, you're drifting Carried soft and slow, no need to fight the tide

  Chorus

  Dennis, close your eyes now, let the whole house rest Nothing out there in the dark can reach this bed You are held here gently, you are always blessed Dennis, hush now, dennis, lay your sleepy head

  Outro

  The last small bubble fades beneath the dimming light above Sleep now, little dennis, wrapped in all this quiet love
