Goodnight, Little One

[Verse 1] [soft] The lamp burns low, a honey-colored glow Your paw still holds the corner of the throw The window keeps the moon behind the glass And all the noisy hours finally pass [Pre-Chorus] [whispered] Your eyes are getting heavy, that's alright The room is warm, the day has said goodnight [Chorus] Rest now, little one, the world can wait for you There's stitching in your seams that love has sewn all through Tomorrow keeps its secrets in a drawer of morning light More wonders to be found — but only after night [Verse 2] The clock has slowed its ticking to a hum The shadows on the ceiling gently come Your breathing finds the rhythm of the rain Nothing left to carry, nothing left to gain [Pre-Chorus] [whispered] So let your little worries drift away They'll all have turned to nothing come the day [Chorus] Rest now, little one, the world can wait for you There's stitching in your seams that love has sewn all through Tomorrow keeps its secrets in a drawer of morning light More wonders to be found — but only after night [Bridge] [soft] And if you wake and cannot see me near Just feel the warmth I left along your ear I'll be the hand that smooths your pillow flat The quiet somewhere just behind all that [Outro] [whispered] Sleep now, little one The night has only just begun Sleep now... I've got you The morning always comes on through
