  Verse 1

  Somewhere a small radio hums its low and dusty tune Filling up the corner of this drowsy, dim lit room Nothing in the whole wide house is asking you to wake Only quiet breathing and the sleep that you will take

  Pre-chorus

  Let the soft hiss carry all your worry far away Close your eyes and let the hush decide how long you stay Something warm is holding on until the morning grey

  Chorus

  Eva, hush now, let the hours go slow and quiet by Nobody will wake you, and no need to wonder why You are held here safely underneath this gentle light Eva, you are cradled through the middle of the night

  Verse 2

  A wooden shelf is standing watch beside your little bed Keeping every worry far and further from your head Sound is turning softer as the evening settles down Wrapping you in comfort like the warmest kind of gown

  Chorus

  Eva, hush now, let the hours go slow and quiet by Nobody will wake you, and no need to wonder why You are held here safely underneath this gentle light Eva, you are cradled through the middle of the night

  Bridge

  Somebody is near you, watching over while you dream Nothing in the darkness is as fierce as it may seem You are loved past counting, past the reach of any fright

  Chorus

  Eva, hush now, let the hours go slow and quiet by Nobody will wake you, and no need to wonder why You are held here safely underneath this gentle light Eva, you are cradled through the middle of the night

  Outro

  Let that soft old humming carry you to somewhere deep and still Sleep now, little Eva, we are near you, and we will

  Verse 1

  Shadows are sliding soft across your little hood tonight Somewhere an acorn taps the gravel, quiet as a sigh You are the calm inside this slow and drifting light Close your eyes now, let the evening rock you as it goes by

  Chorus

  Eva, sleep is coming gentle, coming soft and slow Nothing in this whole wide dark can ever touch you here Every little sound tonight is just for you to know Eva, you are held and warm, you have no need to fear

  Verse 2

  Leaves are dancing quiet shapes that wander as they please Rolling small and round, the acorns settle down to rest Feel the hush that gathers now beneath the whispering trees You are safe as anything that this old night has blessed

  Pre-chorus

  Hear how soft the falling world has grown around your bed Nothing here will hurry you, no reason left to wake Sleep is only waiting now for what your heart has said

  Chorus

  Eva, sleep is coming gentle, coming soft and slow Nothing in this whole wide dark can ever touch you here Every little sound tonight is just for you to know Eva, you are held and warm, you have no need to fear

  Bridge

  Let the small world turn without you for a while Rest inside the quiet that was always kept for you

  Chorus

  Eva, sleep is coming gentle, coming soft and slow Nothing in this whole wide dark can ever touch you here Every little sound tonight is just for you to know Eva, you are held and warm, you have no need to fear

  Outro

  Somewhere still the acorns fall so softly on the ground You are wrapped in shadows moving slow and safe and sound

  Verse 1

  Dust drifts slow through the gold of the afternoon light Wool threads catch on the corduroy fold of my knee You settle in like the hush before nightfall And the whole tired day breathes out and lets you be

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, the house is quiet and still Every shadow tonight is only a friend And the dark is just softness that holds you

  Chorus

  Eva, the night is a blanket drawn over the world You are the warmth that the darkness cannot ever take Sleep now, Eva, there's nothing to fear here I will be near you for as long as you wake

  Verse 2

  The lamp throws a gold that pools soft on the floor Your breathing has slowed to the pace of the rain Somewhere the wind is just rocking the branches And nothing tonight will come near you again

  Chorus

  Eva, the night is a blanket drawn over the world You are the warmth that the darkness cannot ever take Sleep now, Eva, there's nothing to fear here I will be near you for as long as you wake

  Bridge

  Every small breath that you take is a wonder to me Rest now, and let all the stars keep the watch

  Chorus

  Eva, the night is a blanket drawn over the world You are the warmth that the darkness cannot ever take Sleep now, Eva, there's nothing to fear here I will be near you for as long as you wake

  Outro

  The dust has gone still now, the light long since faded But you are still held, and you're safe, and you're mine
