  Verse 1

  Every lamp we pass leaves a glow across your cheek Soft and slow is how this whole world starts to speak Windows hum with amber as the night bus rolls along You are held here safely, wrapped in nothing but a song

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, let the orange lights go by Nothing waits out there that's worth a single worry or sigh Rest against me while the streets breathe low and slow

  Chorus

  Lucas, you're the calm this whole night's leaning on Every light we pass says you are safe, you are not gone Lucas, hush now, let the hum carry you deep Nothing but warm gold and you, drifting into sleep

  Verse 2

  Streetlamps blink like fireflies too tired to fly away Their glow settles gently where your small breath used to play You curl in closer as the engine hums so low Everything outside can wait, there's nowhere we need to go

  Chorus

  Lucas, you're the calm this whole night's leaning on Every light we pass says you are safe, you are not gone Lucas, hush now, let the hum carry you deep Nothing but warm gold and you, drifting into sleep

  Bridge

  Let the whole world blur to amber, soft and slow Wherever this road bends, that's where you're meant to go

  Chorus

  Lucas, you're the calm this whole night's leaning on Every light we pass says you are safe, you are not gone Lucas, hush now, let the hum carry you deep Nothing but warm gold and you, drifting into sleep

  Outro

  Rest now, love, while the amber lamps keep sliding past Sleep is close and warm, and it is built to last

  Verse 1

  The floorboards hush beneath my wool sock feet tonight Down the quiet hall where the lamp burns low and small I carry you so gentle, held in golden light And nothing in this house can trouble you at all

  Pre-chorus

  Every creaking board is singing you to rest Every shadow here is soft and kind and slow The whole house leans in close to say you're blessed

  Chorus

  Lucas, the night is yours to keep Nothing can follow you into sleep Lucas, my arms are where you stay Safe from the noise of the whole wide day

  Verse 2

  The corridor remembers every step we've ever made Soft as socks on wood, as quiet as a sigh I'll walk this same short distance until the fear has stayed Outside these walls where you and I both lie

  Pre-chorus

  Every creaking board is singing you to rest Every shadow here is soft and kind and slow The whole house leans in close to say you're blessed

  Chorus

  Lucas, the night is yours to keep Nothing can follow you into sleep Lucas, my arms are where you stay Safe from the noise of the whole wide day

  Bridge

  Somewhere the wind is turning over on the roof Somewhere the world is small and far and slow You are the warmest thing I've ever known as truth

  Chorus

  Lucas, the night is yours to keep Nothing can follow you into sleep Lucas, my arms are where you stay Safe from the noise of the whole wide day

  Outro

  The floorboards settle now, the hall breathes soft and slow Sleep, little one, there is nowhere else to go

  Verse 1

  A candle glows behind the red glass on the table tonight and the whole room softens down to amber and gold you are curled up warm where the light can find you and I will stay close till the story is told

  Chorus

  Lucas, the night is holding you gently now hush now, the dark is only a friend close up your eyes, let the quiet surround you I will be here when the morning begins again

  Verse 2

  The little flame flickers slow behind the red glass never in a hurry, never burning too bright you breathe just as slow as the wick in its glowing safe in the small and steady hush of the night

  Pre-chorus

  Somewhere past the window the whole world is sleeping the wind has gone quiet, the stars settle in and all that I want is to hold this soft moment

  Chorus

  Lucas, the night is holding you gently now hush now, the dark is only a friend close up your eyes, let the quiet surround you I will be here when the morning begins again

  Bridge

  No ruckus tonight, just the hush and the glow just you, and this warmth, and how much I love you so

  Chorus

  Lucas, the night is holding you gently now hush now, the dark is only a friend close up your eyes, let the quiet surround you I will be here when the morning begins again

  Outro

  The candle burns low behind the red glass on the table and you are still held, and you are still mine
