  Verse 1

  Amber light is spilling soft across the wallpaper's gold Warming every wooden corner of the crib you hold Nothing in this room is asking you to be awake Rest is all the night has planned, and rest is yours to take

  Pre-chorus

  Somewhere past the window the whole wide world grows dim Nothing out there matters more than this small room within Close your eyes now, let the quiet carry you between

  Chorus

  Maureen, the light is low and gold and holding you serene Sleep now, little Maureen, safe in amber, safe unseen Nothing here will wake you, nothing here has ever been unkind Maureen, you are the warmest thing this house will ever find

  Verse 2

  Shadows move so slowly on the yellow wall tonight Soft as breathing, soft as anything that means no fright You are wrapped in something steadier than any lullaby Wooden walls around you, amber ceiling for a sky

  Chorus

  Maureen, the light is low and gold and holding you serene Sleep now, little Maureen, safe in amber, safe unseen Nothing here will wake you, nothing here has ever been unkind Maureen, you are the warmest thing this house will ever find

  Bridge

  Hush now, there is nowhere else you need to be Just this glow, this quiet, this small eternity

  Chorus

  Maureen, the light is low and gold and holding you serene Sleep now, little Maureen, safe in amber, safe unseen Nothing here will wake you, nothing here has ever been unkind Maureen, you are the warmest thing this house will ever find

  Outro

  Sleep now, the wallpaper still holds its gentle gold Maureen, you are the safest thing this small room ever told

  Verse 1

  Gray feathers are brushing the cold glass tonight Behind the dark lace the whole world turns to light There is nothing out there that can reach this room You're the calmest thing that I have ever seen

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes now, let the wind just hum along Nothing in the dark will ever do you wrong I will hold you till the morning comes in soft

  Chorus

  Maureen, Maureen, you're the peace I've always sought Sleep now, little one, you're every good thing thought Somewhere between the shadows and the warm and clean Rest here, Maureen, you're the calm this house has known

  Verse 2

  The glass holds the night but it can't hold your name Because nothing cold could ever call you the same You are warmer than the softest thing I've held You're the quiet at the centre of my routine

  Bridge

  Let the feathers drift, let the branches sway and lean Nothing needs to move except your breath, so serene

  Chorus

  Maureen, Maureen, you're the peace I've always sought Sleep now, little one, you're every good thing thought Somewhere between the shadows and the warm and clean Rest here, Maureen, you're the calm this house has known

  Outro

  The lace still hangs soft between you and the cold Sleep now, you are held, you are loved, you are home

  Verse 1

  Watch how the water runs slowly down the pane tonight every small drop finding its own quiet way down and you are curled here in the soft lamplight warmer than anything that moves through this town

  Pre-chorus

  The glass holds the dark outside so gently apart from you nothing tonight is sharp enough to reach where you lie and all of the noise of the world has gone thin and grew

  Chorus

  Maureen, the night is folding soft around you now sleep is a river and you are drifting between nothing can touch you, no shadow, no how you are the calmest thing that this house has seen

  Verse 2

  One drop meets another and they slide as one tracing a path that only the window has seen you breathe so slow beneath this dimming sun held in a hush that feels entirely clean

  Pre-chorus

  The glass holds the dark outside so gently apart from you nothing tonight is sharp enough to reach where you lie and all of the noise of the world has gone thin and grew

  Chorus

  Maureen, the night is folding soft around you now sleep is a river and you are drifting between nothing can touch you, no shadow, no how you are the calmest thing that this house has seen

  Bridge

  Rest here where the rain cannot find a way in let every worry slide off like water on glass you are so deeply, quietly loved, Maureen

  Chorus

  Maureen, the night is folding soft around you now sleep is a river and you are drifting between nothing can touch you, no shadow, no how you are the calmest thing that this house has seen

  Outro

  The last drop settles slow at the bottom of the pane and you sleep on, safe and still, held gently again
