  Verse 1

  One small ember glows behind the iron bars tonight holding on to warmth when everything else turns down low you are curled up safe beneath the blanket and the light this whole house breathes slower just to see you settle so

  Chorus

  Scarlett, the fire is banked but it will not go out you are held here closer than the dark could ever get little Scarlett, sleep now, there is nothing left to doubt this quiet room is yours and every corner's calm and set

  Verse 2

  The rain is drawing soft lines down the darkened window pane and every drop just adds another hush upon the eaves you don't need to listen for a single thing again just rest inside the sound of how completely this house breathes

  Pre-chorus

  The last small coal is glowing low and steady in the grate it doesn't need to blaze to keep this whole room safe and warm and neither do you, love, as the hour grows late

  Chorus

  Scarlett, the fire is banked but it will not go out you are held here closer than the dark could ever get little Scarlett, sleep now, there is nothing left to doubt this quiet room is yours and every corner's calm and set

  Bridge

  Somewhere past the window the whole wide night is turning slow and nothing in it matters more than you asleep right here everything can wait until the morning starts to show

  Chorus

  Scarlett, the fire is banked but it will not go out you are held here closer than the dark could ever get little Scarlett, sleep now, there is nothing left to doubt this quiet room is yours and every corner's calm and set

  Outro

  One small ember still is glowing gently behind the bars and you are sleeping warm beneath a house full of soft stars

  Verse 1

  There's a far yellow light that sweeps the wall every twelve slow seconds It comes and it goes like a breath that the whole night takes Nothing out there can ever reach this room where you're resting You are held here so gently, long after the light forsakes

  Pre-chorus

  Close your small hands around the hush that's gathering near you Let the dark be a blanket and not a thing to fear Sleep is only the quiet way that I stay to hold you

  Chorus

  Scarlett, the night is only a room where you are precious Every slow flash of light is a promise coming round Nothing will touch you, Scarlett, while I am watching over you You are the softest thing that this whole dark night has found

  Verse 2

  The wall goes gold and then it goes back to whitewashed quiet You breathe in time with the sweep, though you don't know it yet Somewhere a light is turning, far off and never worried And you are turning softer into the sleep you'll get

  Bridge

  Let the far light keep its rhythm, we don't need to follow I will keep mine here beside you, slower than the tide

  Chorus

  Scarlett, the night is only a room where you are precious Every slow flash of light is a promise coming round Nothing will touch you, Scarlett, while I am watching over you You are the softest thing that this whole dark night has found

  Outro

  The light will keep on sweeping the wall long after you're sleeping And I'll be here still, watching it turn, keeping you safe

  Verse 1

  A thread of gold slips softly through the door and dust turns slow, so calm above the floor I watch it drift and think of how you rest so small and warm against a gentle chest

  Chorus

  Scarlett, the whole wide house is holding still for you the quiet settles soft the way it always will for you Sleep now, my darling, let the dark be kind Scarlett, there's nothing waiting but the morning light behind

  Verse 2

  Your breathing slows to match the fading light your small hand finds mine gently through the night No shadow here will ever climb this high I'll keep you closer than the passing sky

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, the hours are turning soft and slow every worry melting into candle glow and here is where the quiet wants to go

  Chorus

  Scarlett, the whole wide house is holding still for you the quiet settles soft the way it always will for you Sleep now, my darling, let the dark be kind Scarlett, there's nothing waiting but the morning light behind

  Bridge

  Rest inside the hush that holds us near nothing in this house but love and here Let the night be gentle, let it stay I will keep the morning safe away

  Chorus

  Scarlett, the whole wide house is holding still for you the quiet settles soft the way it always will for you Sleep now, my darling, let the dark be kind Scarlett, there's nothing waiting but the morning light behind

  Outro

  The light beneath the door will keep its gentle place watching soft and steady over your sleeping face
