  Verse 1

  The hallway glows a soft and yellow shade tonight It slips beneath the door to find you where you lie Nothing in this house will ever give you a fright Sleep now, little one, while the light stays nearby

  Pre-chorus

  The house breathes slow around this room where you are curled Every sound outside has softened to a hush So let the quiet carry you from the whole wide world

  Chorus

  Judy, the night is gentle, and it holds you like a beauty Nothing out there in the dark can ever touch you There's no need to be broody, no need to feel unruly Sleep, Judy, sleep, the whole wide world adores you

  Verse 2

  Someone is close beside this door until the morning comes The carpet holds a little light so you won't be alone You never have to wonder where the warmth is coming from It's here to keep you safe until the darkness has flown

  Bridge

  Rest your head, there's nothing you should carry Every breath you take is watched with care Let the hush of evening make you sleepy

  Chorus

  Judy, the night is gentle, and it holds you like a beauty Nothing out there in the dark can ever touch you There's no need to be broody, no need to feel unruly Sleep, Judy, sleep, the whole wide world adores you

  Outro

  The light beneath the door will stay however long you sleep So rest now, little one, there's nothing here to keep

  Verse 1

  The small green numbers hum so quiet on the wooden stand They count the minutes gently, holding time in one soft hand No need to watch them closely, no need to keep the score You're already halfway dreaming, safe behind the quiet door

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes and let the ticking fade into the dark Every worry of the daylight has gone and left no mark I am here to hold the stillness while you drift so far

  Chorus

  Judy, Judy, sleep is calling soft and low Nothing here can touch you, nowhere else to go You're the calm the whole night gathers round to keep Judy, Judy, let the green light watch you sleep

  Verse 2

  The shadows on the ceiling move so slowly they seem still They mean you nothing but a gentle, cool and quiet chill Your breathing finds the rhythm that the whole dark room can feel Underneath the blanket, everything is safe and real

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes and let the ticking fade into the dark Every worry of the daylight has gone and left no mark I am here to hold the stillness while you drift so far

  Chorus

  Judy, Judy, sleep is calling soft and low Nothing here can touch you, nowhere else to go You're the calm the whole night gathers round to keep Judy, Judy, let the green light watch you sleep

  Bridge

  However far the night stretches out beyond that door You are held here gently, you are wanted, nothing more

  Chorus

  Judy, Judy, sleep is calling soft and low Nothing here can touch you, nowhere else to go You're the calm the whole night gathers round to keep Judy, Judy, let the green light watch you sleep

  Outro

  The small green numbers glow on, watching over you till dawn Sleep now, little Judy, you are loved and you are home

  Verse 1

  Wool fringes brush against your knees so soft and slow Rain taps a rhythm on the glass to hum you low Everything outside can wait until the light Close your eyes now, let the quiet grow

  Chorus

  Judy, Judy, rest your head down here There is nothing in this dark for you to fear Judy, hush now, let the night be kind You are the sweetest thing that I hold near

  Verse 2

  Denim knees still warm from all our sitting still Fingers curled in wool while the house grows chill Nothing needs to move now, nothing needs to speak Sleep will come and carry you until

  Pre-chorus

  Feel how slow the rain falls, feel how soft the dark Let your breathing settle like a fading spark You are safe here, closer than the night can reach

  Chorus

  Judy, Judy, rest your head down here There is nothing in this dark for you to fear Judy, hush now, let the night be kind You are the sweetest thing that I hold near

  Bridge

  Every thread of wool was made to keep you warm Piano notes are falling soft to still the storm

  Chorus

  Judy, Judy, rest your head down here There is nothing in this dark for you to fear Judy, hush now, let the night be kind You are the sweetest thing that I hold near

  Outro

  Sleep now with the wool fringe soft against your skin Morning finds you held, the way you always have been
