  Verse 1

  The grey cotton lifts and falls like it's breathing beside you A soft little sigh as the window lets in the dark You watch the folds sway and slowly your eyelids grow heavy Somewhere past the glass the whole tired world drops its guard

  Chorus

  Preston, the night is only holding you close now Sleep finds you gentle as breath finds its rest on Nothing will wake you, no shadow, no far away sound Preston, this quiet was always your best on

  Verse 2

  Moonlight comes soft through the fabric and lands on your pillow You are the warmest thing this whole dim room contains Outside the breeze moves slow like it's rocking a willow Nothing tonight has the heart to trouble your calm

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, the curtain is humming its low quiet tune Little breaths, little sighs, the dark pulling near Somewhere between them your name is about to be sung

  Chorus

  Preston, the night is only holding you close now Sleep finds you gentle as breath finds its rest on Nothing will wake you, no shadow, no far away sound Preston, this quiet was always your best on

  Bridge

  Even the cotton has stilled itself into sleeping Even the window has folded its light away You are the reason this whole room keeps quiet its keeping

  Chorus

  Preston, the night is only holding you close now Sleep finds you gentle as breath finds its rest on Nothing will wake you, no shadow, no far away sound Preston, this quiet was always your best on

  Outro

  Somewhere the grey cotton settles, done with its swaying Rest now, little one, the whole night is yours for staying

  Verse 1

  A small yellow glow leans its light on the ceiling tonight Soft folds of the quilt catch it gently and hold it like light Your breathing has slowed to the hush that the evening allows Sleep is already curling in close underneath your closed brows

  Pre-chorus

  Every shadow up there has gone soft and gone still Nothing in this room means you any kind of ill So let the glow carry you where the quiet things spill

  Chorus

  Preston, the dark has got nowhere to go but kind Rest on the hush that the whole house has designed Preston, you're held here, no reason to fear Sleep can come closer, there's nothing but calm near

  Verse 2

  Somewhere above you the light keeps its slow steady beam Quiet as breath, it just watches and lets you dream You don't have to hold on to anything but rest Let the whole weight of the day settle soft on your chest

  Chorus

  Preston, the dark has got nowhere to go but kind Rest on the hush that the whole house has designed Preston, you're held here, no reason to fear Sleep can come closer, there's nothing but calm near

  Bridge

  Nothing is asked of you now, only breathe and be still Nestled in blankets, you're safe on this warm little sill

  Chorus

  Preston, the dark has got nowhere to go but kind Rest on the hush that the whole house has designed Preston, you're held here, no reason to fear Sleep can come closer, there's nothing but calm near

  Outro

  That small yellow glow will keep watch till the morning is due Sleep now, my Preston, the whole quiet night belongs to you

  Verse 1

  A small pool of light waits at the top of the stair soft and yellow, spilling gently through the quiet air it stays there so patiently, never in a rush and under it I carry you to somewhere soft and rare

  Chorus

  Preston, Preston, let the whole house settle into rest on every worry of the day, you can let it go and rest on this warm and steady moment, quiet as a held breath close your eyes, my dear one, Preston, you're the best one

  Verse 2

  The stairs creak softly as I climb them slow with you the light above grows nearer, golden, warm and true it never asks for anything, it simply stays and glows and that is how I hold you, the whole night through

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, the house is dimming, every sound has gone to sleep the glow above the stairway is the only light we keep so let your breathing follow it, low and slow and deep

  Chorus

  Preston, Preston, let the whole house settle into rest on every worry of the day, you can let it go and rest on this warm and steady moment, quiet as a held breath close your eyes, my dear one, Preston, you're the best one

  Bridge

  Nothing in the dark can touch you while that small light burns you are held here, safe and certain, long after it returns every night the same soft glow will wait here at the top just for you, until the morning turns

  Chorus

  Preston, Preston, let the whole house settle into rest on every worry of the day, you can let it go and rest on this warm and steady moment, quiet as a held breath close your eyes, my dear one, Preston, you're the best one

  Outro

  The light still waits there gently at the top of the old stair sleep now, little Preston, you are safe and you are cared for
