Golden Crack of Light
Style: Ambient wash

[Verse 1]
A thin line of gold slips across the white rug tonight
Stretching so soft through the smallest crack of light
It moves like a hand that is smoothing your hair
Telling you gently that you are held and you're cared

[Pre-chorus]
The whole wide house is breathing slow around you now
Every small sound is settling, hushing somehow
So close your eyes, love, and let the evening in

[Chorus]
Celeste, the light is folding soft against your chest
Nothing in this quiet world will trouble your rest
Celeste, you are the warmest thing that I have known
Sleep now, my darling, you are never alone

[Verse 2]
The evening wraps around the room like a well worn coat
Carrying you gently on its slow, steady float
You don't need to open your eyes to know you're safe
There is nowhere kinder than this small, quiet space

[Chorus]
Celeste, the light is folding soft against your chest
Nothing in this quiet world will trouble your rest
Celeste, you are the warmest thing that I have known
Sleep now, my darling, you are never alone

[Bridge]
Every breath you take is a small and steady drum
Soft as the hour when the last of the light has come
You are the reason this whole night feels so kind

[Chorus]
Celeste, the light is folding soft against your chest
Nothing in this quiet world will trouble your rest
Celeste, you are the warmest thing that I have known
Sleep now, my darling, you are never alone

[Outro]
The gold has gone soft now, spread thin across the floor
Sleep, my Celeste, you are loved forevermore
