  Verse 1

  The brass radiator clicks its slow and sleepy song tonight Under the dark wood banister where shadows softly creep Down the narrow corridor the house breathes out its light And you are the reason this whole home falls into sleep

  Chorus

  Myles, the night is folding gently over you Every little sound out there is turning into miles Nothing in the dark can reach the place where you lie sleeping Close your eyes now, Myles, and drift beyond the tiles

  Verse 2

  Somewhere past the door the pipes are ticking soft and low Warming up the floor before your small feet ever wake Nobody could love a sleeping thing the way I love you so And every creak tonight is just the old house keeping watch

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, let the warmth come rising through the floor Let the quiet of the hallway carry you away Close your eyes, there's nothing waiting but the door

  Chorus

  Myles, the night is folding gently over you Every little sound out there is turning into miles Nothing in the dark can reach the place where you lie sleeping Close your eyes now, Myles, and drift beyond the tiles

  Bridge

  Somewhere down the hall a small light hums and glows You are held so closely nothing in this house could touch you

  Chorus

  Myles, the night is folding gently over you Every little sound out there is turning into miles Nothing in the dark can reach the place where you lie sleeping Close your eyes now, Myles, and drift beyond the tiles

  Outro

  The radiator hums its last and settles into rest And you are held here safely, sleeping softest, sleeping best

  Verse 1

  Far off lights are sweeping slowly across the quiet ceiling the window gives a little rattle, such a peaceful feeling nothing out there needs your notice, nothing calls or dials you are held here safe and steady through all the drifting miles

  Pre-chorus

  Let the small sounds rock you gently, let your eyes grow heavy hush now, there is nowhere waiting, nowhere but this settee close against the dark and moving, sleep is drawing near you

  Chorus

  Myles, my love, the night is turning soft around you now every mile that passes by is carried by somehow you don't need to keep the hours, you don't need to try rest here, Myles, while the whole wide dark goes drifting quietly by

  Verse 2

  Little tiles of light go sliding gently over where you're lying warm within this small world moving, nothing loud or trying you can let your fingers loosen, let your breathing settle safe as anything that's ever rocked so soft as this old kettle

  Pre-chorus

  Let the small sounds rock you gently, let your eyes grow heavy hush now, there is nowhere waiting, nowhere but this settee close against the dark and moving, sleep is drawing near you

  Chorus

  Myles, my love, the night is turning soft around you now every mile that passes by is carried by somehow you don't need to keep the hours, you don't need to try rest here, Myles, while the whole wide dark goes drifting quietly by

  Bridge

  Whatever trials the day may bring will wait outside this door you are wanted, you are certain, you were loved before

  Chorus

  Myles, my love, the night is turning soft around you now every mile that passes by is carried by somehow you don't need to keep the hours, you don't need to try rest here, Myles, while the whole wide dark goes drifting quietly by

  Outro

  The lights slide slower now and softer over that same ceiling sleep has found you, Myles, and carries you, so easy, so willing

  Chorus

  Myles, the night has folded soft around your bed rain keeps time so gently on the roof up overhead Myles, you're held here safer than the deepest miles nothing in this whole wide dark can touch your smiles

  Bridge

  Let the rain keep tapping soft until the morning comes rest is closer now than any counted sum you are woven into something warm and true
