  Verse 1

  Amber light is spilling soft across the window where you lie Rain is drawing slow lines down the glass like a lullaby Nothing out there needs you now, nothing calls you from this room Close your eyes, my darling, let the whole wide night go by

  Pre-chorus

  Every small sound softens now, the world has turned its volume down Somewhere past the fogged up glass the rain keeps falling round and round Let it carry you to sleep before you know it's begun

  Chorus

  Emilia, the light is low and warm as amber ever glows Rain is only rain out there, it cannot reach where safety grows Sleep is close and gentle now, it's waiting just for you Emilia, drift on down to where the quiet river flows

  Verse 2

  Somewhere engines hum a tune too soft to ever keep you waking Windows hold the night outside while warmth is what you're taking Every drop that slides the glass is only tracing time You are held here safe and still while all the dark is shaking

  Bridge

  Rest inside this small warm space where nothing asks you to be more Let the hush of tyres and rain be all you're listening for

  Chorus

  Emilia, the light is low and warm as amber ever glows Rain is only rain out there, it cannot reach where safety grows Sleep is close and gentle now, it's waiting just for you Emilia, drift on down to where the quiet river flows

  Outro

  Amber still is glowing soft though your eyes have finally closed Sleep now, in the warm and quiet dark, exactly where you're loved most

  Verse 1

  Down the quiet hallway something swings so soft and slow keeping time so gently, easy, steady as you go every tick a promise that the night will hold you near close your eyes, my love, there's nothing waiting here to fear

  Chorus

  Emilia, the whole house breathes in time with you tonight hush now, little one, and let the hallway dim its light rest inside the warmth that's wrapped around you like a song Emilia, you were always where this whole night's love belongs

  Verse 2

  Behind the glass the pendulum keeps swinging slow and true it doesn't rush, it only waits the way I wait for you every hour it turns is one more hour you are held safe beneath the covers where the quiet has been spelled

  Pre-chorus

  Somewhere down the hall the clock is counting soft and low folding up the evening into shadows head to toe and every swing is closer to the dream you're about to know

  Chorus

  Emilia, the whole house breathes in time with you tonight hush now, little one, and let the hallway dim its light rest inside the warmth that's wrapped around you like a song Emilia, you were always where this whole night's love belongs

  Bridge

  Let the ticking carry you where nothing needs to hurry sleep is only love that's learned to move without a worry

  Chorus

  Emilia, the whole house breathes in time with you tonight hush now, little one, and let the hallway dim its light rest inside the warmth that's wrapped around you like a song Emilia, you were always where this whole night's love belongs

  Outro

  Somewhere the pendulum is swinging slower now than before and you are already sleeping, safe behind that quiet door

  Verse 1

  Dark feathers brush the window where the streetlight starts to flicker Soft as a breath against the cold and quiet glass You are folded up in blankets, warm and safe and heavy eyed While the whole wide sleeping world goes drifting slowly past

  Pre-chorus

  Let the shadows out there settle, let the streetlight dim and sway There is nothing in this room but you and me and gentle grey Close your eyes now, hold my hand, and drift the dark away

  Chorus

  Emilia, the night is only velvet, soft and kind Nothing out there means you harm, nothing out there ever will Rest inside the quiet now and leave the world behind Emilia, sleep is only stillness, calm and still

  Verse 2

  Streetlights flicker far beyond the glass but cannot reach you here Every wing that moves outside is only settling for the night You are wrapped in something warmer than the coldest windowpane Held so close that nothing out there ever comes to sight

  Pre-chorus

  Let the shadows out there settle, let the streetlight dim and sway There is nothing in this room but you and me and gentle grey Close your eyes now, hold my hand, and drift the dark away

  Chorus

  Emilia, the night is only velvet, soft and kind Nothing out there means you harm, nothing out there ever will Rest inside the quiet now and leave the world behind Emilia, sleep is only stillness, calm and still

  Bridge

  Every flutter at the glass is only settling to rest You are the warmest thing this whole cold night has ever known

  Chorus

  Emilia, the night is only velvet, soft and kind Nothing out there means you harm, nothing out there ever will Rest inside the quiet now and leave the world behind Emilia, sleep is only stillness, calm and still

  Outro

  The feathers settle soft against the glass and then are still Sleep now, you are held, and nothing out there ever will
