  Verse 1

  The lamp glows low and soft across the room tonight Little specks of dust go drifting through the light Everything is settling, easing out of sight And you are held here safe, and everything's alright

  Pre-chorus

  Your breathing slows to match the hush around you Somewhere past the window all the stars are found Close your eyes now, let the quiet surround you

  Chorus

  Jeff, the night has come to carry you away Softly as the amber light begins to sway Nothing in this world can touch you while you rest Jeff, you are the calmest, safest, dearest guest

  Verse 2

  The little flecks of light are floating slow and free Turning golden circles where you cannot see Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to be Only this soft stillness, only you and me

  Pre-chorus

  Your breathing slows to match the hush around you Somewhere past the window all the stars are found Close your eyes now, let the quiet surround you

  Chorus

  Jeff, the night has come to carry you away Softly as the amber light begins to sway Nothing in this world can touch you while you rest Jeff, you are the calmest, safest, dearest guest

  Bridge

  Every corner of this room is warm and kind Nothing waits for you but rest and peace of mind

  Chorus

  Jeff, the night has come to carry you away Softly as the amber light begins to sway Nothing in this world can touch you while you rest Jeff, you are the calmest, safest, dearest guest

  Outro

  The little lamp still glows so soft and low and slow And you are held in light that never lets you go

  Verse 1

  Under the duvet a small torch is glowing soft and gold There's a moth at the lens beating wings so gentle and slow The whole wide dark has shrunk down to this warm little tent And I hold you closer than anything I've ever held

  Pre-chorus

  Let your breathing slow to match the moth against the light Let the day fall off you like a coat let down at night Close your eyes now, love, there's nowhere safer you could be

  Chorus

  Jeff, my Jeff, the whole night curls around you soft and deep Nothing in the dark can reach you, nothing here to dread There's a small light burning gentle at the foot of where you sleep Jeff, you're held so close, so certain, all the way to morning's edge

  Verse 2

  Somewhere past the window the stars are keeping watch tonight But nothing out there matters half as much as you right here I could count a hundred small things that I love about this hour And still I'd miss the biggest, which is simply having you

  Chorus

  Jeff, my Jeff, the whole night curls around you soft and deep Nothing in the dark can reach you, nothing here to dread There's a small light burning gentle at the foot of where you sleep Jeff, you're held so close, so certain, all the way to morning's edge

  Bridge

  Sleep now, and let the small light do its quiet work Sleep now, you're the warmest thing in all this room tonight

  Chorus

  Jeff, my Jeff, the whole night curls around you soft and deep Nothing in the dark can reach you, nothing here to dread There's a small light burning gentle at the foot of where you sleep Jeff, you're held so close, so certain, all the way to morning's edge

  Outro

  The moth has settled now, its small wings folded still and slow Sleep on, my love, the light stays lit for you till morning glows

  A slow harp lullaby for winding down at bedtime, built around a moth circling a warm little bulb, that turns into a plain, tender promise to Jeff that they are watched over and safe.

  Verse 1

  A small moth is tapping soft wings on the glass Its shadow goes drifting so slow as we pass Warm light on the stairwell is holding it near You're wrapped just as warm in this quiet right here

  Pre-chorus

  Every wing that beats is finding its way home Every little light knows it was never left alone So let your eyes grow heavy now, there's nothing left to roam

  Chorus

  Jeff, the whole house softens down to sleep tonight Nothing in the dark can touch this gentle light Close your eyes, my Jeff, and drift on peaceful and slow You are so deeply loved, more than you'll ever know

  Verse 2

  The bulb on the wall hums low like a lullaby Wings settle to rest as the evening rolls by Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to stir You can let it all go, you are safe as you were

  Pre-chorus

  Every wing that beats is finding its way home Every little light knows it was never left alone So let your eyes grow heavy now, there's nothing left to roam

  Chorus

  Jeff, the whole house softens down to sleep tonight Nothing in the dark can touch this gentle light Close your eyes, my Jeff, and drift on peaceful and slow You are so deeply loved, more than you'll ever know

  Bridge

  Sleep is only a doorway, softly held, softly kept Someone is watching over every breath while you slept

  Chorus

  Jeff, the whole house softens down to sleep tonight Nothing in the dark can touch this gentle light Close your eyes, my Jeff, and drift on peaceful and slow You are so deeply loved, more than you'll ever know

  Outro

  The moth folds its wings by the warm glowing glass Sleep now, little Jeff, let the whole night pass
