Verse 1
Warm water circles slowly round your small and steady toes Every duck upon the surface leans in close to rest You watch them drift together as the last light softly goes Penelope, my darling, you are held and you are blessed
Pre-chorus
The water empties gently, quiet as a sigh Ducks settle in the shallows, no more need to roam Hush now, let the daylight say its last goodbye
Chorus
Penelope, Penelope, the night is soft and slow Close your eyes, my darling, let the warmth stay near Penelope, you're cradled in the gentlest afterglow Sleep will come and find you, and there's nothing here to fear
Verse 2
One small duck goes spinning where the water learns to leave Round and round it circles, never far from you Nothing here will hurry you, no reason yet to grieve Only soap and starlight, only skies of gentle blue
Chorus
Penelope, Penelope, the night is soft and slow Close your eyes, my darling, let the warmth stay near Penelope, you're cradled in the gentlest afterglow Sleep will come and find you, and there's nothing here to fear
Bridge
Every duck will find its harbour by the tub's worn edge You are already home, wrapped soft in every thread
Chorus
Penelope, Penelope, the night is soft and slow Close your eyes, my darling, let the warmth stay near Penelope, you're cradled in the gentlest afterglow Sleep will come and find you, and there's nothing here to fear
Outro
The water's still now, and the ducks have gone to sleep So rest here, Penelope, in dreams both soft and deep

Verse 1
The light climbs slow along the wall to find you here Soft as honey pouring down each worn old step Nothing in this house tonight has cause for any fear Every shadow here has come to watch you as you slept
Pre-chorus
Close your eyes and let the amber carry you away Every little sound outside is settling like the tide Hold this quiet close, my love, and let it lead the way
Chorus
Penelope, the whole wide house is holding you tonight Nothing in the dark can touch the one I treasure so Sleep is only love that's learned to travel without light Penelope, I'll stay right here however long you go
Verse 2
The old wallpaper hums a tune it learned a long time back Peeling at the corners like a page that's turned too far You are held by something warmer than this house can ever lack Steadier than any lamp or any distant star
Chorus
Penelope, the whole wide house is holding you tonight Nothing in the dark can touch the one I treasure so Sleep is only love that's learned to travel without light Penelope, I'll stay right here however long you go
Bridge
Long shadows only mean the light has somewhere warm to lean Rest inside the glow and let the worry drift downstream
Chorus
Penelope, the whole wide house is holding you tonight Nothing in the dark can touch the one I treasure so Sleep is only love that's learned to travel without light Penelope, I'll stay right here however long you go
Outro
The amber light will keep its watch upon the stair Sleep now, love, you're held and known and safe down here

Verse 2
Somewhere past the window little branches sway and bend tracing shapes of comfort that will never truly end you have made this ordinary evening feel so warm you have turned the smallest corner into shelter, into charm

Rest now, let your breathing slow and settle like the leaves stay here in this stillness, held by everyone who loves you
