  Verse 1

  Yellow light is falling soft across the winding stair spilling gold on carpet worn from years of climbing there little feet have made this path a thousand times before and every step tonight is leading to your door

  Chorus

  Kristian, the house has gone so quiet and so still hush now, close your eyes, let sleep come if it will Kristian, my own, no harm can find you here rest inside this warm and winding light, my dear

  Verse 2

  Somewhere down below the rain is tapping out its tune brushing on the window like a lullaby in June climb up through the shadows where the lamplight likes to pool you were always safest in this warm and golden school

  Pre-chorus

  Breathe now, let the day and all its noise go still sink into the pillow like a feather down a hill and let this gentle house sing softly what it will

  Chorus

  Kristian, the house has gone so quiet and so still hush now, close your eyes, let sleep come if it will Kristian, my own, no harm can find you here rest inside this warm and winding light, my dear

  Bridge

  Every worn and faded thread upon this floor has held you close every step you ever climbed has known you best of all, and chose

  Chorus

  Kristian, the house has gone so quiet and so still hush now, close your eyes, let sleep come if it will Kristian, my own, no harm can find you here rest inside this warm and winding light, my dear

  Outro

  Sleep now where the yellow light still settles on the stair knowing you are held and warm and wanted always there

  Verse 1

  Outside the glass a feather settles soft and still Resting on a branch the frost has held so gently Nothing moves out there, nothing needs to stir You are warm inside, away from every chill

  Chorus

  Kristian, the dark is only resting now Close your eyes, my little touch of wisdom Kristian, I am holding you so near Sleep is just the softest place to land

  Verse 2

  Somewhere past the window branches hold their breath Waiting quiet for the morning light to find them You don't need to wait for anything tonight Only sink and let the quiet carry you to rest

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, let the whole house settle into stillness Every little sound is fading soft and low Come and let the dark just hold you close

  Chorus

  Kristian, the dark is only resting now Close your eyes, my little touch of wisdom Kristian, I am holding you so near Sleep is just the softest place to land

  Bridge

  No harm can reach you where you're lying now Just breathing slow beneath this gentle roof You are so loved, however small the hour

  Chorus

  Kristian, the dark is only resting now Close your eyes, my little touch of wisdom Kristian, I am holding you so near Sleep is just the softest place to land

  Outro

  Somewhere the branch still holds its feather in the frost Sleep now, my love, you're safe till morning comes
