  Verse 1

  The tide comes in so quietly to find the harbor wall White foam is washing over stones that used to feel the sun Everything out there is settling, soft and small And here inside these arms, you're already the only one

  Chorus

  Eli, Eli, close your eyes now, let the dark be kind Nothing in this whole wide night could ever touch you here You are held the way the shoreline holds the tide Eli, sleep is closer now than any far off fear

  Verse 2

  Somewhere past the harbor wall the water folds on water Slow and sure, it never asks the pebbles to be still You can rest the way the foam lets go completely Nothing you must carry now, nothing you must will

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, let your breathing find the rhythm of the sea There's no hurry in the dark, no clock you need to keep Just this warmth, and you, and me, so easy

  Chorus

  Eli, Eli, close your eyes now, let the dark be kind Nothing in this whole wide night could ever touch you here You are held the way the shoreline holds the tide Eli, sleep is closer now than any far off fear

  Bridge

  Every wave that comes back home has somewhere soft to land And so do you, my love, right here, so near

  Chorus

  Eli, Eli, close your eyes now, let the dark be kind Nothing in this whole wide night could ever touch you here You are held the way the shoreline holds the tide Eli, sleep is closer now than any far off fear

  Outro

  The foam still turns so gently by the old dark wall And you are safe and drifting now, the softest of us all

  Green leaves are trembling soft above your quiet little hood dusk settles down around us the way it always should nothing out there in the shadows means a single thing of harm just evening breathing gently, and you safe and warm

  Verse 2

  Somewhere far off a small wind moves the branches overhead carrying nothing but a lullaby unsaid you are held so closely nothing needs to be explained just the soft world turning gently, calm and unstrained

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, the light is folding slowly out of sight stars are only waiting for their moment in the night close your eyes and drift here, easy as can be

  Chorus

  Eli, Eli, the leaves are swaying you to sleep this hush is only ours to hold, and ours to keep you are loved more than the wide sky loves the falling dark Eli, sleep now, safe within this quiet park

  Bridge

  Breathe out slow now, let the evening carry every sound away rest inside the calm that stays and stays

  Chorus

  Eli, Eli, the leaves are swaying you to sleep this hush is only ours to hold, and ours to keep you are loved more than the wide sky loves the falling dark Eli, sleep now, safe within this quiet park

  Somewhere above you the leaves have finally grown still sleep on now, Eli, held gently as the whole night will

  Verse 1

  Somewhere a curtain lifts on a warm and quiet breath Softly it settles back before it stirs again Iron bars hold steady while the lace floats free You are held here safely, calm as evening rest

  Pre-chorus

  Nothing needs to hurry now, nothing needs to run Every little sound tonight is turning soft and slow Close your eyes and drift toward the dark that's calling gently

  Chorus

  Eli, the night is folding warm around your bed Stars are watching quietly above your sleepy head Rest here, little one, however long you need Eli, you are loved so deeply and so clearly

  Verse 2

  Warm air moves the curtain like a hand that means no harm Shadows on the wall are only shapes that mean you well Sleep is just a garden where the quiet things grow kind You can wander through it slowly, nothing chasing you

  Bridge

  However far you drift tonight, you're never far from here Hold this feeling like a blanket pulled up to your chin

  Chorus

  Eli, the night is folding warm around your bed Stars are watching quietly above your sleepy head Rest here, little one, however long you need Eli, you are loved so deeply and so clearly

  Outro

  Let the curtain sway you gently into dreams tonight You are safe behind the bars, and morning comes so gently
