## Lyrics

   Verse 1

You left the hallway light on, I was scared to sleep alone. You sat beside my little bed and sang until the fear was gone. The rain was tapping on the glass, your hand was holding mine. I didn’t know those little nights would be the best of times.

  Chorus

Honey, honey, sweet bunny, close your eyes and dream. The world can wait until the morning, you’ll always have a place with me. Honey, honey, sweet bunny, wherever life may go, when you can’t find your way back home, just follow what you know.

  Verse 2

I found your voice upon my phone, a message from last May. “You don’t have to call me back, I just called to say…” I played it in the kitchen where you used to make my tea. For one more minute, you were there, and I was still your little boy.

  Chorus

Honey, honey, sweet bunny, close your eyes and dream. The world can wait until the morning, you’ll always have a place with me. Honey, honey, sweet bunny, wherever life may go, when you can’t find your way back home, just follow what you know.

  Bridge

Tonight my daughter couldn’t sleep. I left the hallway light. She asked me for a little song to make the dark feel right. I sang the words you gave to me. She smiled and closed her eyes. And for a moment, Mom, I swear you were sitting by my side.

  Final Chorus

Honey, honey, sweet bunny, close your eyes and dream. The world can wait until the morning, you’ll always have a place with me. Honey, honey, sweet bunny, some things are meant to stay. A little love, a little song, that time can’t take away.

  Outro

She asked, “Daddy, why are you crying?” I said, “That’s what my mama used to sing.”

## About the Song

A father sings his daughter to sleep with the same song his own mother once sang to him. Years ago he was the frightened child, with the hallway light left on and the rain on the glass; later, all he had left of her was an old voicemail. Now he is the one leaving the light on, passing the song down the way it was passed to him.

It’s a small song about how love stays with us: in familiar words, in a tune we half-remember, in the things we hand down without meaning to.
