Golden Floor
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
A strip of golden carpet stretches over the dark old floorboards
It leads from the doorway right to where your small head is resting
The house goes quiet and settles down around you
I watch that gold light and think how dearly you are held

[Pre-chorus]
The lamp stays low and the hallway hums you gentle
Every shadow tonight has promised to be kind
So let your eyes go heavy, love, and drift

[Chorus]
Aubrey, sleep is a warm road home for you
Aubrey, nothing tonight can touch you, that's true
Rest in the hush that the whole house is keeping
Nothing out there is bigger than my love for you

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the window the whole wide world turns slowly
But here the light stays low and easy, only for you
Your breathing slows to match the house's breathing
I could watch you sleeping and never once feel lonely

[Chorus]
Aubrey, sleep is a warm road home for you
Aubrey, nothing tonight can touch you, that's true
Rest in the hush that the whole house is keeping
Nothing out there is bigger than my love for you

[Bridge]
Every night that gold strip finds you again
Laid out soft as a hand across the floor
However far your dreams decide to wander
There is always this warm way back to shore

[Chorus]
Aubrey, sleep is a warm road home for you
Aubrey, nothing tonight can touch you, that's true
Rest in the hush that the whole house is keeping
Nothing out there is bigger than my love for you

[Outro]
The gold on the floorboards will still be there come morning
And so will this love, waiting quiet, holding you
