  Verse 1

  The porch light catches every leaf out there in the wet dark Softly it glows just to keep watch while you drift far away Nothing tonight can come close enough to trouble your small heart You are the warmest thing this whole quiet street will know till day

  Chorus

  Gabriel, hush now, the night has you wrapped in its slow keeping Rain on the leaves is just the world humming you under Sleep finds you soft as the light through the glass gently seeping Gabriel, nothing can reach you, not thunder, not wonder

  Verse 2

  Somewhere a puddle holds the whole sky folded up small and still Just like that puddle, you hold more than your tiny frame could say Close your eyes now, let the hush of the evening have its will Nobody loved has ever been loved in quite this gentle way

  Pre-chorus

  Listen how quiet the whole street has gone, holding its breath for you Even the wind has curled up soft against the windowpane Something is waiting to carry you where the soft dark leads to

  Chorus

  Gabriel, hush now, the night has you wrapped in its slow keeping Rain on the leaves is just the world humming you under Sleep finds you soft as the light through the glass gently seeping Gabriel, nothing can reach you, not thunder, not wonder

  Bridge

  You are held closer than any lamp holds its own small light Nothing unkind gets past this door, not tonight, not tonight

  Chorus

  Gabriel, hush now, the night has you wrapped in its slow keeping Rain on the leaves is just the world humming you under Sleep finds you soft as the light through the glass gently seeping Gabriel, nothing can reach you, not thunder, not wonder

  Outro

  Somewhere the leaves are still glistening under that same porch light Sleep now, you are the softest thing living inside this night

  Verse 1

  There's a small blue flame keeping watch beneath the kettle low It hums a hush that only sleepy rooms can know Nothing in this house is louder than your breathing Rest now, little one, and let the warm light glow

  Pre-chorus

  The steam curls up like it's telling you a secret Every corner of this room is soft and yours So let your tired eyes go heavy now and close

  Chorus

  Gabriel, the night is warm and holding you so gently Sleep is just a boat that carries you so slowly You are safe here as the flame keeps burning steady Gabriel, my dear one, close your eyes completely

  Verse 2

  Somewhere in the kitchen dark the kettle sighs and settles Its little flame won't flicker out before the dawn You don't have to hold on to a single worry Just breathe it out and let it all be gone

  Bridge

  Every quiet thing tonight is watching over you The low blue light, the still and steady hum

  Chorus

  Gabriel, the night is warm and holding you so gently Sleep is just a boat that carries you so slowly You are safe here as the flame keeps burning steady Gabriel, my dear one, close your eyes completely

  Outro

  The small blue flame will burn on quiet and unhurried Sleep now, Gabriel, you are so deeply loved and carried

  Verse 1

  Stripes of wool run softly over the old wooden floor and every colour there was chosen to carry you more hush is settling into the corners, quiet and slow this is the last small room you need to know

  Pre-chorus

  Somewhere a light is dimming to let the stars appear warmth is folding round you, closer than you can hear so let your eyes grow heavy, there is nothing to fear

  Chorus

  Gabriel, the dark is only a blanket pulled with care Gabriel, my hands are near you, breathing the same soft air nothing tonight will hurry you, nothing will make you rise only my quiet humming, only your closing eyes

  Verse 2

  Floorboards are creaking gently under the weight of night you are the warmest colour caught in the fading light every thread beneath you holds a piece of the day folding it into stillness, tucking the noise away

  Bridge

  Sleep is a river carrying you where you need to go carried so gently, softer than you could ever know

  Chorus

  Gabriel, the dark is only a blanket pulled with care Gabriel, my hands are near you, breathing the same soft air nothing tonight will hurry you, nothing will make you rise only my quiet humming, only your closing eyes

  Outro

  Somewhere the stripes are fading soft into the floor rest now, my Gabriel, you are held and nothing more
