Songs for Jenson

Verse 1

Grey smoke is curling soft above the red brick chimney Sparks fly up bright then fade to velvet skies The whole wide house is settling into stillness now And underneath it all, your quiet breathing lies

Chorus

Jenson, Jenson, the fire is burning low for you Every spark that rises knows the way back home Jenson, you are held here safe till morning finds you Nothing in this night will leave you on your own

Verse 2

The warmth is spreading slow through every corner of this room Outside the dark is gentle, nothing there to fear Your little hands are curled and resting, still and easy Sleep is only love that's learned to whisper near

Pre-chorus

Hush now, let the embers dim and settle Feel how soft the shadows fold around your bed Close your eyes, there's nowhere warmer you could be than

Chorus

Jenson, Jenson, the fire is burning low for you Every spark that rises knows the way back home Jenson, you are held here safe till morning finds you Nothing in this night will leave you on your own

Bridge

Long after the last spark has gone to sleep in ashes Somebody will still be watching over you

Chorus

Jenson, Jenson, the fire is burning low for you Every spark that rises knows the way back home Jenson, you are held here safe till morning finds you Nothing in this night will leave you on your own

Outro

The smoke has settled soft between the quiet bricks now Sleep, Jenson, you are held here till the light

Verse 1

Somewhere a clock is breathing slow behind old glass brass hands turning gentle as the hours softly pass the whole house leans in closer as the lamp burns low and everything is waiting just for you to pass into sleep

Pre-chorus

Hush now, the dark is only a blanket pulled up tight every shadow in this room is only saying goodnight close your eyes and drift where the quiet numbers grow

Chorus

Jenson, the night is holding you soft and slow warm as the light the old clock lets glow nothing can touch you while I'm here to stay Jenson, my darling, let the whole world go

Verse 2

The mahogany door keeps the ticking safe and near a steady little heartbeat for you to hear it counts you down gently to somewhere warm and deep and I will stay beside you the whole way down to sleep

Pre-chorus

Hush now, the dark is only a blanket pulled up tight every shadow in this room is only saying goodnight close your eyes and drift where the quiet numbers grow

Chorus

Jenson, the night is holding you soft and slow warm as the light the old clock lets glow nothing can touch you while I'm here to stay Jenson, my darling, let the whole world go

Bridge

Time can tick as slow as it wants tonight we are not going anywhere before the light rest inside the hush that this house lets grow

Chorus

Jenson, the night is holding you soft and slow warm as the light the old clock lets glow nothing can touch you while I'm here to stay Jenson, my darling, let the whole world go

Outro

Somewhere the brass hands turn behind the darkened glass and you sleep on safely as the quiet hours pass

Verse 1

Amber lights are sliding soft across your sleepy face Every flicker falling slower as we drift along You are held here safely in this quiet moving place Nothing in the whole wide world can touch you or go wrong

Pre-chorus

Close those heavy eyelids, let the hum of home draw near Every mile is bringing you to somewhere warm and still Rest against my shoulder, there is nothing you need fear

Chorus

Jenson, Jenson, hush now, let the night roll gently by Rocked by every streetlight passing gold across the glass Nothing needs to wake you, love is humming you goodnight Jenson, close your eyes now, let the ordinary pass

Verse 2

Windows hold the evening like a lantern soft and low Streetlamps drop their honey down in circles as we pass You are wrapped in blankets while the quiet world moves slow Dreaming through the golden hush that pools upon the glass

Bridge

Stars are only streetlights that the sky decided to keep Hold that thought and let it rock you gently into sleep

Chorus

Jenson, Jenson, hush now, let the night roll gently by Rocked by every streetlight passing gold across the glass Nothing needs to wake you, love is humming you goodnight Jenson, close your eyes now, let the ordinary pass

Outro

Somewhere down the road the amber lights are fading slow Sleep now, little Jenson, you are safe wherever we go
