  Verse 1

  Wool threads rest heavy across my knee tonight and somewhere near the floorboards softly creak the whole wide house is settling into the light and you're the reason I have grown so weak

  Pre-chorus

  Every little breath you take is holding on to me and every creak outside is just the house saying goodnight so let the hush come closer, let your shoulders finally be free

  Chorus

  Hudson, close your eyes and let the dark be kind you are the calm that settles every room I'm in there's nowhere safer than the place you'll always find Hudson, you were loved before you took a single breath

  Verse 2

  The wool sits warm and still across my folded knee while shadows learn to lie down soft along the floor nothing in this house would ever wish you harm or worry you are the quiet thing I have been waiting for

  Pre-chorus

  Every little breath you take is holding on to me and every creak outside is just the house saying goodnight so let the hush come closer, let your shoulders finally be free

  Chorus

  Hudson, close your eyes and let the dark be kind you are the calm that settles every room I'm in there's nowhere safer than the place you'll always find Hudson, you were loved before you took a single breath

  Bridge

  Sleep now, let the whole wide night grow slow and low you are held by hands that never plan to go

  Chorus

  Hudson, close your eyes and let the dark be kind you are the calm that settles every room I'm in there's nowhere safer than the place you'll always find Hudson, you were loved before you took a single breath

  Outro

  The wool grows still and heavy now across my knee sleep on, my Hudson, you are everything to me

  Verse 1

  A slow yellow beam moves quietly over the water tonight tracing the dark with such patient and tender light warm in your room while the waves settle low safe in this hush where the soft hours go

  Chorus

  Hudson, my Hudson, the tide has grown still and kind rest now and let all your worries unwind you are the harbour this light always finds held here so gently, so deep in my mind

  Verse 2

  Somewhere the water is turning to glass in the cove wrapped in the calm that this quiet night wove close your eyes softly, let dreaming begin warmth all around you, both out and within

  Pre-chorus

  Sleep is a shoreline where nothing can harm you the dark only holds you, it never will storm you closer and closer the hush starts to call you

  Chorus

  Hudson, my Hudson, the tide has grown still and kind rest now and let all your worries unwind you are the harbour this light always finds held here so gently, so deep in my mind

  Bridge

  Every beam that sweeps low over black, quiet water turns for you only, my own steady starter nothing can touch you while this light keeps on turning

  Chorus

  Hudson, my Hudson, the tide has grown still and kind rest now and let all your worries unwind you are the harbour this light always finds held here so gently, so deep in my mind

  Outro

  The beam swings on slowly past the dark, sleeping water and you drift off safely, my own quiet harbour

• White Curtains Falling Slow

  A gentle vibraphone lullaby for settling a little one named Hudson to sleep, drawn from the quiet drift of curtains beside a wooden crib.

  Verse 1

  The curtains lift and settle like the tide finding its shore Nothing in this room is asking for a single thing more The dark has gone soft around you, wrapped in wood and hush Sleep is only breathing that keeps drifting toward the door

  Pre-chorus

  Somewhere past the window the whole world has laid its head down Every worry you could carry has grown far too tired to frown So let your small hands open and let go of the day now

  Chorus

  Hudson, the night is holding you like river holds the mud Nothing can reach you here, not shadow, not the flood You are the warmest good this quiet house has known Sleep well, my Hudson, sleep as easy as good blood

  Verse 2

  The crib was carved from patient wood that waited just for you Every curve of it was shaped by hands that loved you too Breathe in the calm that settles when the last light starts to fade There is nothing in this dark that isn't gentle, isn't true

  Chorus

  Hudson, the night is holding you like river holds the mud Nothing can reach you here, not shadow, not the flood You are the warmest good this quiet house has known Sleep well, my Hudson, sleep as easy as good blood

  Bridge

  Let the curtain breathe for you when your own breath grows too slow Let the quiet do the watching while you drift below

  Chorus

  Hudson, the night is holding you like river holds the mud Nothing can reach you here, not shadow, not the flood You are the warmest good this quiet house has known Sleep well, my Hudson, sleep as easy as good blood

  Outro

  The white curtains drift inward, softer now than any sound This is where you're kept, this is where you're always found
