A Stripe of Gold Beneath the Door
Style: Gentle acoustic

[Verse 1]
There's a stripe of yellow light beneath the closed door
staying there to watch you all night long
and the house breathes soft around you, settled and sure
humming low its quiet, steady song

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the day slip away from you
every worry folding down to nothing at all
and the dark is only ever kind to you

[Chorus]
Audrey, the whole wide world can wait till morning
nothing here will ever let you down
you are held so close without a warning
Audrey, safest sleeper in this town

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the door the lamp still glows for you
keeping every shadow soft and small
and nothing in this house would ever let you down
not the quiet, not the dark, not at all

[Bridge]
Rest your head, there's nowhere else to be
just this warm and gentle stillness, only you and me
and every breath you take is safe as it can be

[Chorus]
Audrey, the whole wide world can wait till morning
nothing here will ever let you down
you are held so close without a warning
Audrey, safest sleeper in this town

[Outro]
That stripe of gold beneath the door will burn there still
watching over you until the light comes in
