  Verse 1

  The fire is folding into grey and going soft and slow It doesn't need you watching now, it knows the way to go Behind the black screen the embers hum a quiet little song So let your busy little thoughts just settle down below

  Pre-chorus

  Every ember dims a little more and softens as it cools The whole wide room is breathing slow beneath the falling ash And nothing needs your eyes to stay open any longer

  Chorus

  Larry, the warmth will stay here long after the light is low Carry your dreaming softly, there's nowhere else to go Even the embers rest when the deepest dark comes near And Larry, we'll still be close when the morning starts to grow

  Verse 2

  The ash falls light as feathers on the coals that used to burn Nothing is lost inside that hush, it only rests in turn Somewhere beneath the grey the glow keeps holding steady still And you can let your eyelids do the same, in their own turn

  Chorus

  Larry, the warmth will stay here long after the light is low Carry your dreaming softly, there's nowhere else to go Even the embers rest when the deepest dark comes near And Larry, we'll still be close when the morning starts to grow

  Bridge

  Nothing you're holding has to be held so tightly tonight Let it go soft the way the fire lets go of its light

  Chorus

  Larry, the warmth will stay here long after the light is low Carry your dreaming softly, there's nowhere else to go Even the embers rest when the deepest dark comes near And Larry, we'll still be close when the morning starts to grow

  Outro

  The screen holds the last of the glow so gently through the night And you are held that way too, all the way to morning light

  Verse 1

  Cold drops are sliding slow down the clear glass tonight beyond them the headlights come drifting like soft light but here in this room there is nothing to fear warm under blankets is where you belong, my dear

  Pre-chorus

  The world outside moves on without a sound while you stay wrapped up safe and warm and sound and sleep is coming closer, gentle, slow and deep

  Chorus

  Larry, the night is holding you so near every small breath of yours is precious here nothing can touch you, nothing needs to worry rest now sweetly, there is no need to hurry, Larry

  Verse 2

  The lights outside blur softly through the rain like little stars that wander, calm and plain and you are curled up smaller than the dark your steady breathing is the only spark

  Bridge

  Let every worry drift away like fog and every hour move slow like a sleepy dog you are held closer than the glass holds rain

  Chorus

  Larry, the night is holding you so near every small breath of yours is precious here nothing can touch you, nothing needs to worry rest now sweetly, there is no need to hurry, Larry

  Outro

  The drops have stilled now, quiet on the glass and you drift off gently as the headlights pass

  Verse 1

  A pale light climbs the wall above the open door tonight it moves so slowly, like it doesn't want to leave and I am watching over you until you feel it, love the quiet kind of safe that lets you finally breathe

  Pre-chorus

  The house is soft and settled, every sound has gone to rest the light is barely moving now, it's holding at its best so let it be the last thing that you see before you sleep

  Chorus

  Larry, the whole wide night is folding gently round you now there's nothing out there waiting that could ever make you worry I'll stay until the shadows learn to hush and slow and bow and Larry, you're the softest thing I ever learned to carry

  Verse 2

  That warm light doesn't hurry, and it never has to try it just leans there on the plaster like it's watching you as well and I think it knows already what I know when you're this close that some small kind of wonder chose to come and here to dwell

  Chorus

  Larry, the whole wide night is folding gently round you now there's nothing out there waiting that could ever make you worry I'll stay until the shadows learn to hush and slow and bow and Larry, you're the softest thing I ever learned to carry

  Bridge

  Whatever door you wander through when you are older, further, grown this quiet will still find you, soft as breath and fully known

  Chorus

  Larry, the whole wide night is folding gently round you now there's nothing out there waiting that could ever make you worry I'll stay until the shadows learn to hush and slow and bow and Larry, you're the softest thing I ever learned to carry

  Outro

  The light has almost stilled now, resting just above the door and you are already drifting where I'll keep you evermore
