A Yellow Circle of Light
Style: Music box

[Verse 1]
The lamp is turned down to a small yellow ring on the floor
Soft as a coin someone dropped from the moon above
Nothing can reach you inside of this quiet, gentle glow
You are the reason this whole house is wrapped in love

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the day slip off your shoulders
Every worry can wait outside this door
Sleep is coming soft and slow to carry you

[Chorus]
Adeline, the light is low and you are safe and warm
Nothing in the dark tonight will ever cause you harm
Adeline, you are the calm at the end of every line
Rest your head, the whole wide world can wait until it's time

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the window the stars are keeping watch for you
Quiet as a lullaby that never needs to rhyme
Every breath you take tonight is steady, slow and sure
You were made to be adored, you were always mine

[Chorus]
Adeline, the light is low and you are safe and warm
Nothing in the dark tonight will ever cause you harm
Adeline, you are the calm at the end of every line
Rest your head, the whole wide world can wait until it's time

[Bridge]
Hush now, there is nowhere else that you should be
Just this small warm circle, just this you and me

[Chorus]
Adeline, the light is low and you are safe and warm
Nothing in the dark tonight will ever cause you harm
Adeline, you are the calm at the end of every line
Rest your head, the whole wide world can wait until it's time

[Outro]
The lamp will keep its small round watch until the morning comes
Sleep now, you are held inside that gentle yellow glow
