  Verse 1

  The fringe threads tangle soft across the worn old wool tonight and the copper needles rest now, their long work laid aside nothing here is hurried, nothing left to chase you are wrapped in something gentle, warm and quiet and right

  Pre-chorus

  Every stitch was made so slowly, made to hold you near and the room grows softer, sinking into calm and clear so let your breathing follow, let it carry you down low

  Chorus

  Stacey, the night has come to keep you, soft as lacy thread hush now, the dark is gentle, nothing waits ahead you are held here, Stacey, safer than you know close your eyes, let sleep come find you, warm inside your bed

  Verse 2

  The wool remembers every colour that has passed it by and still it settles round you, keeping out the cold outside nothing needs an answer, nothing needs a light you can rest here fully, you don't have to try

  Pre-chorus

  Every stitch was made so slowly, made to hold you near and the room grows softer, sinking into calm and clear so let your breathing follow, let it carry you down low

  Chorus

  Stacey, the night has come to keep you, soft as lacy thread hush now, the dark is gentle, nothing waits ahead you are held here, Stacey, safer than you know close your eyes, let sleep come find you, warm inside your bed

  Bridge

  No hurry in this room, no clock to mind only quiet breathing, only you and time

  Chorus

  Stacey, the night has come to keep you, soft as lacy thread hush now, the dark is gentle, nothing waits ahead you are held here, Stacey, safer than you know close your eyes, let sleep come find you, warm inside your bed

  Outro

  The needles rest, the wool lies still, the fringe has stopped its sway you are held so gently now, and morning's far away

  Verse 1

  The lamp turns the brass switch to gold beside your bed Old stories are stacked where the warm light will fall You breathe in the hush that the evening has spread And nothing tonight is too heavy at all

  Chorus

  Stacey, the dark is a blanket, not a thing to fear Close your eyes now, Stacey, morning waits its turn Every soft shadow only means that I am near You are held here gently while the small lamp burns

  Verse 2

  The pages are quiet, they have nowhere to be Just like you, love, drifting soft into the night Nothing will wake you that you need to see You are wrapped up warm in the low amber light

  Pre-chorus

  Let the hush settle deep into your chest Let your small hands finally stop holding on Sleep is only quiet, easing you toward rest

  Chorus

  Stacey, the dark is a blanket, not a thing to fear Close your eyes now, Stacey, morning waits its turn Every soft shadow only means that I am near You are held here gently while the small lamp burns

  Bridge

  Nothing can reach you while this light is on No need to listen for a single sound You are the calm that the whole night is built around

  Chorus

  Stacey, the dark is a blanket, not a thing to fear Close your eyes now, Stacey, morning waits its turn Every soft shadow only means that I am near You are held here gently while the small lamp burns

  Outro

  The brass switch glows soft as the old books rest near you Sleep now, love, the amber light will keep watching over you

  Verse 1

  Look how the leafy shadows drift across the plaster white They tremble slow above the wardrobe standing dark and still Nothing in this small room means to give you any fright Every shape that moves tonight is moving with goodwill

  Pre-chorus

  The rain is tapping soft along the window like a friend Your breathing finds the rhythm and it slows to meet the beat So close your eyes now, Stacey, let the evening bend

  Chorus

  Stacey, Stacey, the dark is only lace Woven soft with shadows moving slow and spacey Every corner of this room has kept its gentle place Rest here safely, quietly, only Stacey

  Verse 2

  The wardrobe in the corner holds its shape and holds its peace It never minds the branches waving shadows on its door You are held here warmer than a blanket's soft increase Sleep is only walking distance from the floor

  Bridge

  Let the piano hum you low and let the rain keep time Nothing far away tonight can find its way to you

  Chorus

  Stacey, Stacey, the dark is only lace Woven soft with shadows moving slow and spacey Every corner of this room has kept its gentle place Rest here safely, quietly, only Stacey

  Outro

  The leaves keep swaying gently though the wind has gone to rest Sleep now, Stacey, held here, safest and the best
