  Verse 1

  Somewhere a rope leans soft against old painted wood holding a raft that rocks so slow, so good you are that raft and I'm the rope tonight tied to you gently till the morning light

  Chorus

  Talia, hush now, let the dark be kind close your small hand and leave the day behind nothing will pull you loose from where you lay Talia, I'm holding you till light finds day

  Verse 2

  Water below you moves but never far under a sleepy, half closed silver star every small creak is just the rope's soft song singing you safely all the whole night long

  Pre-chorus

  Your breathing slows to match the tide's own beat warmth wraps around you like a woollen sheet and something steady keeps you close and near

  Chorus

  Talia, hush now, let the dark be kind close your small hand and leave the day behind nothing will pull you loose from where you lay Talia, I'm holding you till light finds day

  Bridge

  Let the knot hold, let the current pass nothing can shake you loose from where you rest at last

  Chorus

  Talia, hush now, let the dark be kind close your small hand and leave the day behind nothing will pull you loose from where you lay Talia, I'm holding you till light finds day

  Outro

  Somewhere that rope still leans on painted wood holding you steady, just like it always could

  Verse 1

  A yellow beam is sweeping over old and peeling paint the railing wears its rust like it has waited up for you I'll watch it slide so slowly till the whole street turns to quiet and nothing out there moves now except this gentle light and you

  Pre-chorus

  Close your eyes and let the sweeping light become a lullaby there's nothing sharp or hurried in the way this night goes by so let the hush come nearer, love, and settle where you lie

  Chorus

  Talia, the night is only warmth wrapped soft around your bed no shadow here would dare to touch the calm inside your head Talia, you are held by every quiet thing unsaid sleep now, little dahlia, let the dark be kind instead

  Verse 2

  The paint has flaked in patches where the years have leaned against it but still that beam comes sliding down as steady as a hand I think of how you breathe so slow, so certain, so unhurried and how the whole wide dark tonight has softened where you stand

  Chorus

  Talia, the night is only warmth wrapped soft around your bed no shadow here would dare to touch the calm inside your head Talia, you are held by every quiet thing unsaid sleep now, little dahlia, let the dark be kind instead

  Bridge

  Rest inside the rocking hush, the slowest kind of tide there is nowhere safer built than right here at your side

  Chorus

  Talia, the night is only warmth wrapped soft around your bed no shadow here would dare to touch the calm inside your head Talia, you are held by every quiet thing unsaid sleep now, little dahlia, let the dark be kind instead

  Outro

  The beam will keep on sweeping soft across the old iron rail and I'll stay here beside you, love, until the morning's pale

• Grey Feather, Soft Branch

  Humming choir · Choir · Wordless · Warm

  A slow, breath-soft lullaby for settling a young child at bedtime, built around a small nest keeping still through the dark.

  Verse 1

  Somewhere a grey feather settles on a low, damp branch tonight the pine needles hush themselves quiet to let it rest right nothing out there stirs or worries once the light has gone you are held just as gently, tucked away out of sight

  Chorus

  Talia, the dark is only a blanket pulled soft round the trees close your eyes now, Talia, and drift on this slow, easy breeze nothing can reach you here, nothing will trouble your rest sleep finds you the way that morning always finds the leaves

  Verse 2

  Out in the wet woods a small wing folds and goes still the whole forest breathes slower, settling under the hill no need to listen for footsteps, no need to keep watch you can let go of the day now, however it went

  Pre-chorus

  Hush now, let the branches hold their small, quiet weight feel how the night wraps round without a single sound and carries you gently toward whatever comes next

  Chorus

  Talia, the dark is only a blanket pulled soft round the trees close your eyes now, Talia, and drift on this slow, easy breeze nothing can reach you here, nothing will trouble your rest sleep finds you the way that morning always finds the leaves

  Bridge

  Rest easy, the whole wide night is holding its breath for you every shadow has gone soft, every worry has slipped from view

  Chorus

  Talia, the dark is only a blanket pulled soft round the trees close your eyes now, Talia, and drift on this slow, easy breeze nothing can reach you here, nothing will trouble your rest sleep finds you the way that morning always finds the leaves

  Outro

  Somewhere that feather still rests on its low, quiet branch and you rest just as safely, held here until the light comes back
