Orange Light on Wet Roads
Style: Kalimba night

[Verse 1]
Orange lights are sliding soft across the wet glass tonight
Every road we travel finds its way to rest
You are held here safely, wrapped in amber light
Nothing in the dark outside can touch what's best

[Chorus]
Amelie, the night is closing gentle round you now
Close your eyes, I'm holding all your worry tamely
Every mile of dark road leads back home somehow
Sleep is calling softly, calling for Amelie

[Verse 2]
The wipers hum a rhythm slower than a heartbeat
Streetlights blink like lanterns guiding you to sleep
You don't have to wonder where the morning finds you
I will keep the promise that I mean to keep

[Pre-chorus]
Rain is only rain, and dark is only dark
Nothing here can follow past the window's frame
So let the hush come nearer, let it leave its mark

[Chorus]
Amelie, the night is closing gentle round you now
Close your eyes, I'm holding all your worry tamely
Every mile of dark road leads back home somehow
Sleep is calling softly, calling for Amelie

[Bridge]
You are loved beyond the counting of the lights we pass
However far we drive, you're never far from me

[Chorus]
Amelie, the night is closing gentle round you now
Close your eyes, I'm holding all your worry tamely
Every mile of dark road leads back home somehow
Sleep is calling softly, calling for Amelie

[Outro]
The orange light still glows across the quiet glass
You are home now, and the whole night lets you rest
