  Verse 1

  Grey ash is falling soft over embers burning low Behind the rusty screen the warm light starts to slow You watch it settle, curled up safe against my chest Nothing in this whole wide world can touch your rest

  Chorus

  Sherry, Sherry, close your eyes and drift with me Warm as coals still glowing underneath the grey You are held here, Sherry, nothing asking you to stay awake Sleep is yours tonight, and morning still can wait

  Verse 2

  Every spark has found its blanket, soft and slow and grey Hushing down the way your breathing hushes into sleep Outside the wind can holler, it will not reach this room You are wrapped in something quieter than the moon

  Pre-chorus

  Feel how the fire keeps its heat beneath the ash it wears Feel how my arms keep holding you the same way, unaware Of anything but keeping you this warm, this safe, this near

  Chorus

  Sherry, Sherry, close your eyes and drift with me Warm as coals still glowing underneath the grey You are held here, Sherry, nothing asking you to stay awake Sleep is yours tonight, and morning still can wait

  Bridge

  Let the last light dim behind its screen of rusted wire Let it burn down slower than you ever need to try

  Chorus

  Sherry, Sherry, close your eyes and drift with me Warm as coals still glowing underneath the grey You are held here, Sherry, nothing asking you to stay awake Sleep is yours tonight, and morning still can wait

  Outro

  Somewhere embers settle soft as ash falls slow and light You are held the same way, gently, through the night

  Verse 1

  The heavy fringe hangs down so soft above your wool socks tonight Resting easy on the footstool, waiting for you to close your eyes Every thread was made to keep you gentle, keep you warm and light You are held here safer than a berry tucked beneath the skies

  Chorus

  Sherry, Sherry, drift away now, let the quiet carry you Nothing in this whole wide night could ever touch what's warm and true Sherry, close your eyes so gently, dreams are waiting soft for you Sleep is just a ferry rocking, taking you where hearts stay true

  Verse 2

  The wooden stool stands still and steady, holding all your tiny weight Nothing here will ever hurry, nothing here will make you wait You are wrapped in something gentle, woven slow and woven late Sleep will come the way the evening always comes to close the gate

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, let the wool grow heavy, let your breathing slow and fall Every little sound is fading soft into the quiet hall Close your eyes, my dear, and listen, sleep is waiting just for all

  Chorus

  Sherry, Sherry, drift away now, let the quiet carry you Nothing in this whole wide night could ever touch what's warm and true Sherry, close your eyes so gently, dreams are waiting soft for you Sleep is just a ferry rocking, taking you where hearts stay true

  Bridge

  No need to be wary, love is folded all around You are never far from safety, never far from steady ground

  Chorus

  Sherry, Sherry, drift away now, let the quiet carry you Nothing in this whole wide night could ever touch what's warm and true Sherry, close your eyes so gently, dreams are waiting soft for you Sleep is just a ferry rocking, taking you where hearts stay true

  Outro

  The fringe still falls so soft above the socks upon the floor Sleep well, my Sherry, you are loved as much as ever, always more

  Verse 1

  Watch the soft grey shapes go sliding slowly over the wall they move so quiet, they never make a single sound the window frame is painting shadows onto the plaster and you are the calmest thing that I have found

  Pre-chorus

  Somewhere past the curtain the whole wide world is turning but nothing out there matters more than you right here so let your breathing follow the shadows as they wander

  Chorus

  Sherry, the night is holding you so gently now the dark is only softness, nothing sharp or wary close your eyes and drift to where the quiet grows you are so loved, my little Sherry

  Verse 2

  The wardrobe stands there patient in the corner of the room while shadows climb its edges then slip quietly away you do not need to watch them, you can let them wander I will still be near you at the ending of the day

  Chorus

  Sherry, the night is holding you so gently now the dark is only softness, nothing sharp or wary close your eyes and drift to where the quiet grows you are so loved, my little Sherry

  Bridge

  Every little shadow is only light at rest held inside this room where you are safest, you are best

  Chorus

  Sherry, the night is holding you so gently now the dark is only softness, nothing sharp or wary close your eyes and drift to where the quiet grows you are so loved, my little Sherry

  Outro

  The shadows keep on drifting slowly over the wall and you are sleeping softly, held above them all
