  Verse 1

  Soft wool tassels sway and brush the old worn floor Quiet little creaks are all I'm listening for You are wrapped up warm where the lamplight barely glows Sleep is coming gentle now, the way it always goes

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, the house is settling into rest Every corner of this room has learned you're blessed Close your eyes and drift where the quiet holds you best

  Chorus

  Everett, my heart has never met A love so steady, so easy to treasure it Sleep now, Everett, forever yet Safe in this warmth, I will not forget it

  Verse 2

  Somewhere past the window the whole wide night is still Nothing here can reach you, nothing ever will Wrapped in soft wool colours, tucked beneath the light I will stay beside you through the long, slow night

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, the house is settling into rest Every corner of this room has learned you're blessed Close your eyes and drift where the quiet holds you best

  Chorus

  Everett, my heart has never met A love so steady, so easy to treasure it Sleep now, Everett, forever yet Safe in this warmth, I will not forget it

  Bridge

  Let the tassels sway, let the old floor creak Nothing in this house was ever built to wake you

  Chorus

  Everett, my heart has never met A love so steady, so easy to treasure it Sleep now, Everett, forever yet Safe in this warmth, I will not forget it

  Outro

  Somewhere the wool still sways above the wooden floor Sleep now, my Everett, you are loved forevermore

  Verse 1

  Rain is tapping so softly on the canvas above you Falling gentle on bark and on the old metal ribs Nothing out in the dark tonight could ever undo you Sleep is drifting in slow on these quiet little ribs

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, the night is only breathing Every shadow tonight is kind and knows your name Let the rain keep on falling while the dark is leaving

  Chorus

  Everett, hush now, you're the softest treasure it Ever held in arms so warm and safe tonight However far you wander, I will measure it In every gentle breath until the morning light

  Verse 2

  Somewhere out beyond the tent the wind is turning small Rocking every branch to sleep the way I rock you now Nothing in this whole wide world could ever let you fall You are held here, closer than the rain upon the bough

  Chorus

  Everett, hush now, you're the softest treasure it Ever held in arms so warm and safe tonight However far you wander, I will measure it In every gentle breath until the morning light

  Bridge

  No storm has ever been so loud it reached this deep Where you are lying warm and small beneath the beat This little roof will hold you safely while you sleep

  Chorus

  Everett, hush now, you're the softest treasure it Ever held in arms so warm and safe tonight However far you wander, I will measure it In every gentle breath until the morning light

  Outro

  The rain is softer now, still tapping on the bark above Sleep on, my Everett, forever held in love

  Verse 1

  The lace at the window drifts soft in the cooling air moonlight is pooling and settling in your hair the whole house has gone quiet, just breathing and still you rest here so easy, like nothing's a care

  Pre-chorus

  Your breathing slows down as the curtains sway low the glass holds the moon like it's happy to glow let the hush wrap around you and carry you slow

  Chorus

  Everett, the night keeps you closer than you've ever met this warmth was made for you, don't you forget hush now, my darling, before you can measure it sleep finds you gentle, it hasn't failed you yet

  Verse 2

  Somewhere past the window a small wind turns the lace a cool little breath finds its way to this place you don't need to know where the dark bends and goes tonight it can't reach you, not into this space

  Pre-chorus

  Your breathing slows down as the curtains sway low the glass holds the moon like it's happy to glow let the hush wrap around you and carry you slow

  Chorus

  Everett, the night keeps you closer than you've ever met this warmth was made for you, don't you forget hush now, my darling, before you can measure it sleep finds you gentle, it hasn't failed you yet

  Bridge

  Nothing tonight is asking anything of you rest is the only thing left to pursue let go of the day and whatever it brought

  Chorus

  Everett, the night keeps you closer than you've ever met this warmth was made for you, don't you forget hush now, my darling, before you can measure it sleep finds you gentle, it hasn't failed you yet

  Outro

  Somewhere the lace still catches a little moonlight tonight you are held here so gently, so deeply, so right
