The book lies open wide
On your small wooden knee
One last turn of the page
And you lean close to me
The lamp burns low and kind
Over crumbs and fading gold
I tuck the tale away
Like a mitten in the cold
Hush now, the castle sleeps
The window folds its light
I'll count the steps we took
Three by three tonight
Waltz to close the storybook
Slowly, slowly, love
Waltz to close the storybook
Soft as stars above

Waltz to close the storybook
Your thumb marks every place
Where the brave ones ran and cried
A paper crown, a blue glass lake
A door with no one inside
The fox has gone to bed
And the moon has shut the gate
I smooth the crease with careful hands
And let the ending wait
Hush now, the castle sleeps
The window folds its light
I'll count the steps we took
Three by three tonight
Waltz to close the storybook
Slowly, slowly, love
Waltz to close the storybook
Soft as stars above
Goodnight, little world
Goodnight, little world
Waltz to close the storybook
If the dragons come again
We'll leave a lamp on low
If the hallway gets too long
We'll learn it as we go
But for now, your eyes are warm
And the last gold fades away
So hold my hand, and circle once
Then let the quiet stay
Waltz to close the storybook
Slowly, slowly, love
Waltz to close the storybook
Soft as stars above
