  Verse 1

  The grate breathes low and lets its last light fold into grey and still I feel it warm the whole room where you lay nothing needs to burn bright to keep somebody safe till day you are held here so gently, nothing asking you to stay awake

  Pre-chorus

  Your breathing slows to match the hush that settles round the coals and every worry of the day has quietly let go so close your eyes now, Fraser, let the last light lead you home

  Chorus

  Fraser, Fraser, sleep is calling soft and low nobody will let the fire or the night time hurt you so you are the ember that keeps this whole house glowing rest now, Fraser, there is nowhere else you need to go

  Verse 2

  The ash slides down so slowly it forgets to make a sound and I would keep you just as quiet, just as safely wound in blankets warm as embers, in the hush of what we found you are the softest kind of light this house has ever found

  Pre-chorus

  Your breathing slows to match the hush that settles round the coals and every worry of the day has quietly let go so close your eyes now, Fraser, let the last light lead you home

  Chorus

  Fraser, Fraser, sleep is calling soft and low nobody will let the fire or the night time hurt you so you are the ember that keeps this whole house glowing rest now, Fraser, there is nowhere else you need to go

  Bridge

  No need to hold the morning back, it always finds its way but for now you are the only warmth this room will keep till day

  Chorus

  Fraser, Fraser, sleep is calling soft and low nobody will let the fire or the night time hurt you so you are the ember that keeps this whole house glowing rest now, Fraser, there is nowhere else you need to go

  Outro

  The coals go quiet, and quiet is all that we need tonight sleep now, Fraser, you were always the warmest light

  Verse 1

  Amber light slides soft across the blanket on your knee Warm as a hand that stays right where it ought to be Nothing out there in the dark can touch you now You are held so gently, love has shown you how

  Pre-chorus

  Close those heavy eyes and let the hum carry you slow Nothing waits outside that you will ever need to know Just the engine's whisper and the dark closing in kind

  Chorus

  Fraser, the night is only lights that blink and fade away Sleep now, you are safer than the softest word could say Hush now, Fraser, let the amber wash you clean Nothing in this whole wide world could slip between

  Verse 2

  Streetlights flicker gold then fall behind us one by one Marking out the miles until this quiet day is done Rest against the window, let your breathing slow right down Somebody is watching over every mile of ground

  Bridge

  Wrapped up warm while the whole world turns to grey Nothing needs an answer, nothing needs a name today

  Chorus

  Fraser, the night is only lights that blink and fade away Sleep now, you are safer than the softest word could say Hush now, Fraser, let the amber wash you clean Nothing in this whole wide world could slip between

  Outro

  Sleep now while the amber keeps its watch upon your face Wrapped in that same blanket, held in that same safe place

  Verse 1

  Dark water is moving so softly over the stones tonight Every small ripple is folding down to rest at the shore The moon has gone pale and gentle just to lend you its light Nothing is asking for anything more

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, the room is warm and the hour is slow Let the hush of the water carry you soft and low There is nowhere to be but here, wrapped up in this glow

  Chorus

  Fraser, the night is holding you gently in its hand Nothing can reach you, nothing can touch you here Fraser, you're safe as the pebbles smoothed on the sand Sleep is a shore that is always near

  Verse 2

  The water forgets every edge it has touched by morning Smoothing the stones till they shine soft and round You are held just the same, without any warning Wrapped in a quiet that makes no sound

  Chorus

  Fraser, the night is holding you gently in its hand Nothing can reach you, nothing can touch you here Fraser, you're safe as the pebbles smoothed on the sand Sleep is a shore that is always near

  Bridge

  However far the dark water might wander and roam It always comes back to settle you home

  Chorus

  Fraser, the night is holding you gently in its hand Nothing can reach you, nothing can touch you here Fraser, you're safe as the pebbles smoothed on the sand Sleep is a shore that is always near

  Outro

  The moon stays pale and low above the water's gentle sound Sleep now, you are loved, and you are found
