Little Gold Light
Style: Rocking chair waltz

[Verse 1]
Little dust motes are turning slow in the golden warm air
Drifting so soft where the radiator hums low and steady
You are the reason this whole quiet room feels so gentle
Wrapped up and held while the night settles in, warm and ready

[Pre-chorus]
Every small breath that you take pulls the evening in closer
Shadows are kind here, they lean in to keep you protected
Close your eyes now, let the hush carry you where it's going

[Chorus]
Aubrey, the light on the wall is turning to honey and gold
Somewhere past sleepy your eyelids are learning to fall
Nothing tonight has to hurry, nothing has to be told
Aubrey, you're held here as safe as this house and these walls

[Verse 2]
Watch how the light seems to float like it's barely awake
Just like you, drifting soft between here and your dreaming
Whatever the day was, it's over, it's yours now to shake
Sleep is a boat and you're already gently careening

[Chorus]
Aubrey, the light on the wall is turning to honey and gold
Somewhere past sleepy your eyelids are learning to fall
Nothing tonight has to hurry, nothing has to be told
Aubrey, you're held here as safe as this house and these walls

[Bridge]
Somebody's here while the whole house breathes low and slow
Somebody's watching the gold dust settle like snow

[Chorus]
Aubrey, the light on the wall is turning to honey and gold
Somewhere past sleepy your eyelids are learning to fall
Nothing tonight has to hurry, nothing has to be told
Aubrey, you're held here as safe as this house and these walls

[Outro]
The dust keeps turning so slowly in the warm yellow light
Sleep now, you're carried right through to the far side of night
