  Verse 1

  Softly I cross the floor to see you sleeping there careful to keep my footsteps light upon the stair You breathe so slow, so easy, tucked beneath the blankets warm and nothing in this house tonight will do you any harm

  Chorus

  Max, my heart goes quiet when I watch you rest this way Max, you make the darkest hour feel as soft as day Sleep now, little steady one, let all your worries fall for you are held and you are safe, the dearest of them all

  Verse 2

  The floorboards creak beneath my socks but you don't stir at all held so deep in dreaming that the sound can't break the wall I linger in the doorway just to watch your chest rise slow and something in me settles too, though you may never know

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, the whole wide house is leaning in to keep you still every quiet corner of this night is on your side so let the hum of sleep come rolling over you like tide

  Chorus

  Max, my heart goes quiet when I watch you rest this way Max, you make the darkest hour feel as soft as day Sleep now, little steady one, let all your worries fall for you are held and you are safe, the dearest of them all

  Bridge

  Rest easy, the night has nowhere else to be but here wrapped around you, soft and slow, until the light draws near

  Chorus

  Max, my heart goes quiet when I watch you rest this way Max, you make the darkest hour feel as soft as day Sleep now, little steady one, let all your worries fall for you are held and you are safe, the dearest of them all

  Outro

  I'll leave the door half open just to hear you breathing slow and stand a moment longer, loving you before I go

  Verse 1

  The lamp outside is painting stripes of orange on the floor Soft and slow they stretch across the carpet by your bed Every little shadow here has come to close the door There is nothing in this room that you should ever dread

  Pre-chorus

  The whole wide street has gone as quiet as a held breath Nothing moves out there except the light through leaves and glass So let your busy little day go drifting off to rest

  Chorus

  Max, the night has wrapped its arms around this house tonight Nothing here will ever come to do you any harm Rest your head and let the orange glow become your light Max, you are held here safely, folded in and warm

  Verse 2

  The stripes will slide so slowly that you'll never see them move They keep such gentle watch above you while you sleep so deep Nothing out there in the dark has any need to prove You are the softest, safest thing that this old street will keep

  Chorus

  Max, the night has wrapped its arms around this house tonight Nothing here will ever come to do you any harm Rest your head and let the orange glow become your light Max, you are held here safely, folded in and warm

  Bridge

  Somewhere past the window the whole town is going still Every light is dimming down to let the dark be kind Sleep will come as gently as the rain along the sill

  Chorus

  Max, the night has wrapped its arms around this house tonight Nothing here will ever come to do you any harm Rest your head and let the orange glow become your light Max, you are held here safely, folded in and warm

  Outro

  The stripes are fading gently now as morning waits its turn And you are loved here always, however long you sleep

  Verse 1

  The rain is sliding slowly down the glass beside you Every drop is finding its own way home tonight No need to count them, no need to chase them The whole wide sky has nothing left to ask of you

  Pre-chorus

  Your breathing slows to match the falling water Softer now than anything the night could bring So let your eyes grow heavy, Max, and follow

  Chorus

  Max, the glass is cool but you are warm Safe inside while every drop moves on and on Nothing out there needs you, nothing calls you Max, you're held here till the coming dawn

  Verse 2

  The yellow seat has kept its shape around you Holding you the way it always will tonight Outside the window, shadows drift and settle Nothing in that dark can reach the place you're in

  Chorus

  Max, the glass is cool but you are warm Safe inside while every drop moves on and on Nothing out there needs you, nothing calls you Max, you're held here till the coming dawn

  Bridge

  Somewhere far the wind is turning over roofs and trees But here the air is still and low and yours

  Chorus

  Max, the glass is cool but you are warm Safe inside while every drop moves on and on Nothing out there needs you, nothing calls you Max, you're held here till the coming dawn

  Outro

  The last drop settles quiet on the yellow seat Sleep now, Max, there's nothing left to keep
