Lyric

Inside the sleeping page

I found your paper sky

The ink was holding moonbeams

In a quiet lullaby

Your name was folded softly

Between the trees and rain

I traced it with my finger

And the room forgot my name

And the lamp went gold

As the letters leaned near

Every little silence

Turned to velvet in my ear

I heard a tiny doorway

Open in the seam

Like the book was breathing

And I stepped into the dream

Drift me inside the page

Inside the page

Let me stay in your spell

Let me stay, let me stay

Drift me inside the page

Inside the page

Where the paper hearts fall

And the old stars sway

A fox in a blue waistcoat

Passed under a drawn moon

A harp kept on remembering

A half-forgotten tune

The roses at the margin

Shook silver in the dark

And every tiny sentence

Lit a little spark

Then the night bent low

To the shape of your song

Even lost and lonely

Never felt so long

The clarinet was threading

Through the folded light

And the story held me gently

Till I turned to page-white

Drift me inside the page

Inside the page

Let me stay in your spell

Let me stay, let me stay

Drift me inside the page

Inside the page

Where the paper hearts fall

And the old stars sway

If morning comes too soon

Keep my shadow in the spine

Tuck it by the ribbon

Where the dreaming seams align

I'll be a little comma

In the hush between the lines

A song that never leaves you

When the bedtime lantern dies

Drift me inside the page

Inside the page

Let me stay in your spell

Let me stay, let me stay

Drift me inside the page

Inside the page

Till the story turns slow

And the last page fades away
