Verse 1
A stripe of yellow light falls soft across the stairs tonight Quiet gathers in the hallway, dimming every sound and sight Somewhere past that gentle glow your little eyes grow slow You are held here, you are safe here, tucked away from every fright
Chorus
Walter, close your eyes now, let the whole wide house grow still Nothing here can hurt you, nothing wishes to or will Sleep is only softness rising slowly to the sill Walter, you are loved so deeply, that no dark can ever spill
Verse 2
Patterned paper on the wall keeps every shadow calm and slow Up above the sleeping rooms a hush begins to grow Little breaths are rising, gentle as the falling light You are safe inside this evening, wrapped in all it has to show
Pre-chorus
Somewhere a door clicks softly shut against the cooling air Somewhere a candle dims to nothing, leaving only care And still that golden line keeps shining, telling you it's there
Chorus
Walter, close your eyes now, let the whole wide house grow still Nothing here can hurt you, nothing wishes to or will Sleep is only softness rising slowly to the sill Walter, you are loved so deeply, that no dark can ever spill
Bridge
Rest now, little wanderer, the night has nowhere else to be Every hush that holds you also holds a part of me
Chorus
Walter, close your eyes now, let the whole wide house grow still Nothing here can hurt you, nothing wishes to or will Sleep is only softness rising slowly to the sill Walter, you are loved so deeply, that no dark can ever spill
Outro
That stripe of light will still be waiting gently on the stair Sleep now, Walter, you are cradled softly everywhere
The Slow Light Turning
Ambient wash · Ambient · Pads · BreathyA calm ambient lullaby for settling a young child at night, built around a distant beam of light sweeping gently over white brick walls.

Verse 1
A far off light turns slowly past the window where you lie It brushes soft across the wall and then it drifts away I watch it move and think of how it never seems to hurry And know that you are safer than the quiet end of day
Chorus
Walter, close your eyes now, let the light keep turning slow Nothing in this room can touch you, nothing you should know You are held here warmer than the white walls ever glow Walter, you are steady even when the beam is low
Verse 2
The wall goes bright then dim again the way your breathing does A hush moves through the house like water settling to still I keep my hand upon you as the far beam sweeps and passes And nothing in the dark tonight can climb up on this sill
Pre-chorus
The light will keep on turning long after you have gone to sleep It does not need you watching, it will still be there at dawn So let your shoulders soften now, there's nothing left to keep
Chorus
Walter, close your eyes now, let the light keep turning slow Nothing in this room can touch you, nothing you should know You are held here warmer than the white walls ever glow Walter, you are steady even when the beam is low
Bridge
However far that light must travel, it will not travel here You are wrapped in something steadier than any beam can be Sleep is only you and me and one small quiet sphere
Chorus
Walter, close your eyes now, let the light keep turning slow Nothing in this room can touch you, nothing you should know You are held here warmer than the white walls ever glow Walter, you are steady even when the beam is low
Outro
The light will turn its slow round long after you have drifted And you will still be held here, warm and safe and gifted
Walter, Hold the Quiet

Verse 1
The curtains lift and settle over floorboards cool and bare Midnight breathes so gently through the open window there Nothing in this room will ever cause you harm or fear Only warmth and quiet things are waiting for you here
Pre-chorus
Close your eyes and let the whole wide world grow small Every worry drifting off, you don't need them at all Just the hush, the breath, the dark, and one more lullaby call
Chorus
Walter, you're the softest light this house has ever known Nothing here will ever let you feel alone You will never falter while I'm holding on so tight Walter, close your eyes now, rest here through the night
Verse 2
Somewhere past the window sill the stars are settling too Every quiet thing tonight is watching over you The floorboards hold the stillness like they're keeping it in trust Sleep will come so easy now, there's really no need to rush
Chorus
Walter, you're the softest light this house has ever known Nothing here will ever let you feel alone You will never falter while I'm holding on so tight Walter, close your eyes now, rest here through the night
Bridge
However far the night unwinds, you're held here safe and sound Nothing in the dark tonight will ever pull you down
Chorus
Walter, you're the softest light this house has ever known Nothing here will ever let you feel alone You will never falter while I'm holding on so tight Walter, close your eyes now, rest here through the night
Outro
The curtains breathe so slowly now above the floor you know Sleep well, little Walter, let the quiet carry you low
