  Verse 1

  Dust is turning slowly in the last thin line of light Floorboards give their quiet creaks as we say goodnight Somewhere past the window a small wren has gone to rest And you are held here softly, safe and out of sight

  Chorus

  Glenn, the house breathes gentle now, the day has let you go Every corner of this room is watching over Glenn Rest inside the hush that settles slow and low Glenn, you're held, you're warm, you're loved, and that won't ever end

  Verse 2

  The lamp throws all its small light up along the wall Nothing in this room will wake you, nothing here will call Only dust that drifts and settles where the shadows bend And your breathing slows to meet it, softest of them all

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, let the ceiling turn to sky Let the creaking floor become a lullaby Everything is winding down to where you

  Chorus

  Glenn, the house breathes gentle now, the day has let you go Every corner of this room is watching over Glenn Rest inside the hush that settles slow and low Glenn, you're held, you're warm, you're loved, and that won't ever end

  Bridge

  Somewhere far the night keeps turning, slow as any wheel Nothing out there in the dark can touch what's warm and real

  Chorus

  Glenn, the house breathes gentle now, the day has let you go Every corner of this room is watching over Glenn Rest inside the hush that settles slow and low Glenn, you're held, you're warm, you're loved, and that won't ever end

  Outro

  The dust has settled softly on the old worn floor Sleep now, Glenn, you're wanted here, and always will be more

  Verse 1

  The candle bends its light down low across the cedar floor and everything is quiet now, the whole wide house has stilled soft the wax goes pooling round like water finding shore this room was built for you tonight and every wish fulfilled

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes, the flame is dimming slow and sweet the brass is cool, the day has laid its worries down let the hush come gather you from head to feet

  Chorus

  Sleep now, Glenn, the night is holding you so gently you are treasured more than any story I could tell somewhere past the window there's a soft and sleepy Glenn tucked in warm and certain that tonight will end you well

  Verse 2

  The wick will rest beneath its little cap of shining brass smoke will curl up thin and slow like breath upon the air you don't need to keep your eyes on anything that's passed only need to know that you are wanted, you are rare

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes, the flame is dimming slow and sweet the brass is cool, the day has laid its worries down let the hush come gather you from head to feet

  Chorus

  Sleep now, Glenn, the night is holding you so gently you are treasured more than any story I could tell somewhere past the window there's a soft and sleepy Glenn tucked in warm and certain that tonight will end you well

  Bridge

  No shadow here will ever come to trouble you every quiet minute now belongs to only you

  Chorus

  Sleep now, Glenn, the night is holding you so gently you are treasured more than any story I could tell somewhere past the window there's a soft and sleepy Glenn tucked in warm and certain that tonight will end you well

  Outro

  The wax has settled still and soft around the cedar wood rest now, you are loved here, and you always understood

  Verse 1

  A stripe of light slips softly across the wall tonight Sliding so quietly past your bed as you lie still It comes from a door left open just a little for you So you always know somebody's near and always will

  Pre-chorus

  The house grows quiet, the whole wide world breathes slower Your small hands rest, your busy day lets go Close your eyes now, Glenn, and drift where the light is soft and low

  Chorus

  Glenn, the night is holding you so gently now Every corner of this room was made to keep you warm You are the softest word I whisper, Glenn, before you sleep Glenn, you are safe here, you were never born to fear the dark

  Verse 2

  That thin gold line will still be there when morning comes to find you Painting the wall the way it always finds its way to you Nothing tonight is asking you to be anything but calm You can let the whole day settle while the light says its goodnight too

  Bridge

  Rest your head where it is warmest, let your breathing find its tide There is nothing waiting for you that the dark can't gently hide

  Chorus

  Glenn, the night is holding you so gently now Every corner of this room was made to keep you warm You are the softest word I whisper, Glenn, before you sleep Glenn, you are safe here, you were never born to fear the dark

  Outro

  The stripe of light will keep its watch until the morning comes Sleep now, Glenn, the whole night long is gentle, and it's yours
