Yellow Light Under the Door
Style: Vibraphone drift

[Verse 1]
Yellow light spills soft beneath the painted door tonight
Falling on the worn wool carpet, warm and quiet like a light
You are wrapped in blankets, breathing slow and deep
Carter, love is standing guard while you're asleep

[Pre-chorus]
The house is settling, every creak has gone to rest
Somewhere down the hallway there's a lamp still softly dressed
And nothing in the shadows means you any harm tonight

[Chorus]
Carter, close your eyes now, let the dark be kind
There's a golden thread of light that you will always find
Carter, you are held here, safe as safe can be
Sleep now, little starter, someone's watching over thee

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the window all the stars are keeping still
Waiting with the moonlight on the windowsill
You don't need to wonder if the morning comes too slow
Carter, you are cradled in the gentlest glow

[Pre-chorus]
The house is settling, every creak has gone to rest
Somewhere down the hallway there's a lamp still softly dressed
And nothing in the shadows means you any harm tonight

[Chorus]
Carter, close your eyes now, let the dark be kind
There's a golden thread of light that you will always find
Carter, you are held here, safe as safe can be
Sleep now, little starter, someone's watching over thee

[Bridge]
Hush now, nothing here will ever let you fall
Every gentle hour is wrapped around you, that is all

[Chorus]
Carter, close your eyes now, let the dark be kind
There's a golden thread of light that you will always find
Carter, you are held here, safe as safe can be
Sleep now, little starter, someone's watching over thee

[Outro]
The light beneath the door will still be there when you wake
Carter, you are loved with every breath that we take
