The Slow Gold Light
Style: Gentle acoustic

[Verse 1]
A slow gold light is sweeping across the quiet wall
Drifting so easy, watch it curve and softly fall
It finds the corner where the shadows like to keep
And you are already halfway down to sleep

[Pre-chorus]
The house breathes slow now, every sound has gone to rest
Nothing out there is bigger than this warm small nest
So let your eyes grow heavy, let the night come near

[Chorus]
Cooper, my whole heart settles when you're close
Nothing in this wide world matters more than you, I suppose
You are the softest kind of trooper
Cooper, sleep and know how loved you are, Cooper

[Verse 2]
The beam has slid on further, past the picture on the wall
It touches nothing precious as the ones who hear you call
You don't need to chase it, you don't need to keep it near
Just close your eyes, love, everything is here

[Bridge]
Let the dark be soft tonight, let it hold you kind
Nothing you could dream of could ever leave you behind

[Chorus]
Cooper, my whole heart settles when you're close
Nothing in this wide world matters more than you, I suppose
You are the softest kind of trooper
Cooper, sleep and know how loved you are, Cooper

[Outro]
The light has gone to rest now, sliding soft behind the wall
And you are safe and sleeping, held before you fall
