The Little Yellow Light
Style: Ambient wash

[Verse 1]
There's a small yellow bulb swinging soft on its wire
up above the landing, hung a little bit higher
and it watches the hallway while the house breathes slow
keeping you from the shadows that would rather not go

[Chorus]
Caleb, the light is low and the night is kind
Caleb, there's nothing waiting to trouble your mind
rest in the hush that the evening has made
you are the reason the quiet was stayed

[Verse 2]
That crooked little wire has swayed there for years
holding its glow through the softest of fears
it isn't much, just a flicker, a hum
but it waits up for you until morning has come

[Pre-chorus]
Somewhere below you the house settles deeper
doors easing shut like a slow, gentle keeper
and the warmth from that bulb is the last thing to fade

[Chorus]
Caleb, the light is low and the night is kind
Caleb, there's nothing waiting to trouble your mind
rest in the hush that the evening has made
you are the reason the quiet was stayed

[Bridge]
Let the whole house hold its breath around you
nothing can reach where the dark won't find you

[Chorus]
Caleb, the light is low and the night is kind
Caleb, there's nothing waiting to trouble your mind
rest in the hush that the evening has made
you are the reason the quiet was stayed

[Outro]
That small yellow light will keep swinging so slow
just to watch over you while you drift and let go
