  Verse 1

  A stripe of silver stretches quiet across the floor tonight drawn from the window to the door where soft shadows lie nothing in this room will stir or wake or make a sound only you, breathing slow and safe, so gently held and found

  Chorus

  Monica, rest your small head down and let the hours go close your eyes upon a night that only wants you so sleep is a harmonica hum, low and warm and near Monica, you are so loved here, so loved here

  Verse 2

  Somewhere past that thread of light your dreaming has begun little breaths like waves that roll in slower than the sun nothing needs to hurry now, no reason to be far you are the warmest thing in reach of any waiting star

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, let the quiet fold around you soft and slow feel how the dark holds nothing sharp, nothing you need know only a hand nearby and a heart that will not go

  Chorus

  Monica, rest your small head down and let the hours go close your eyes upon a night that only wants you so sleep is a harmonica hum, low and warm and near Monica, you are so loved here, so loved here

  Bridge

  Even the floorboards seem to hush beneath that thread of light holding still so nothing wakes you from the dark to bright you are kept, you are kept, however long the night

  Chorus

  Monica, rest your small head down and let the hours go close your eyes upon a night that only wants you so sleep is a harmonica hum, low and warm and near Monica, you are so loved here, so loved here

  Outro

  That stripe of silver will still be there when morning comes to call and you were loved through every hour of the dark, through it all

  Verse 1

  Wrapped in wool while the wicker settles slow beneath you Every creak is a hush that only means you're safe Nothing out there tonight has any way to reach you Close your eyes now and float in this small quiet place

  Pre-chorus

  Somewhere a lamp is dimming low and losing its argument with sleep Your breathing slows to match the chair that rocks so soft and deep Hold on to nothing, let the dark come warm and easy

  Chorus

  Monica, the night has wrapped its arms around you tight Rest your small head down and drift on nothing but delight Nobody could dim a single bit of your soft light Monica, I'll keep you safe and warm the whole long night

  Verse 2

  Somewhere past the window the whole wide world turns quiet Stars are only there to watch you settle and be still Let the hush of evening be your gentlest little diet Sleep will come now easy as a valley fills

  Bridge

  Every creak of wicker is a lullaby of its own Rocking slow to tell you that you're never once alone

  Chorus

  Monica, the night has wrapped its arms around you tight Rest your small head down and drift on nothing but delight Nobody could dim a single bit of your soft light Monica, I'll keep you safe and warm the whole long night

  Outro

  Wool grows heavy now and the chair has gone still and slow Sleep, my Monica, and let the whole wide night be so

  Verse 1

  The frost on the window holds a shadow soft and slow a small pair of wings that drift and glow gentle as a hand upon a they pass and leave you calm below

  Chorus

  Monica, the night has wrapped its arms around your bed hush now, let the hours grow quiet in your head softer than a whispered word upon a Monica, there's nothing here to dread

  Verse 2

  The glass is cold but you are warm beneath the fold every little breath of yours is gold nothing in the dark can reach you safe inside the story I have told

  Pre-chorus

  The shadow slips away but still the warmth is staying near closer than a song hummed soft into your ear so let the drowsy feeling gather here

  Chorus

  Monica, the night has wrapped its arms around your bed hush now, let the hours grow quiet in your head softer than a whispered word upon a Monica, there's nothing here to dread

  Bridge

  Sleep is just a river and I'll hold you as you float every worry left behind like some old coat rest is all this moment has to give you

  Chorus

  Monica, the night has wrapped its arms around your bed hush now, let the hours grow quiet in your head softer than a whispered word upon a Monica, there's nothing here to dread

  Outro

  The frost will keep its shadow till the morning comes for you sleep now, love, the wings are watching too
