Yellow Light Through the Door
Style: Rain and piano

[Verse 1]
A thin yellow light falls across the patterned floor tonight
It slips through the crack like it came here just to tell
Something warm and quiet, something soft that feels alright
And I am watching over you, my own Danielle

[Pre-chorus]
The house breathes slow around you, settling into rest
Every corner of this room is holding what it holds
And the dark outside is gentle, it means you nothing but the best

[Chorus]
Danielle, the light is low and the whole wide world can wait
Nothing here will trouble you, nothing here will swell
You are held here safely, you are loved beyond debate
Sleep now in the quiet, my Danielle

[Verse 2]
The rug beneath the doorway wears a soft and fading glow
Like a promise someone painted there to keep and not to sell
And wherever your dreams wander tonight, however far they go
You will always find your way back home, Danielle

[Chorus]
Danielle, the light is low and the whole wide world can wait
Nothing here will trouble you, nothing here will swell
You are held here safely, you are loved beyond debate
Sleep now in the quiet, my Danielle

[Bridge]
Rain is falling soft against the window, keeping time
Every drop a small hello, a hush, a quiet spell
Nothing in this house tonight will ever ring a warning bell
You are safe, you are certain, you are mine

[Chorus]
Danielle, the light is low and the whole wide world can wait
Nothing here will trouble you, nothing here will swell
You are held here safely, you are loved beyond debate
Sleep now in the quiet, my Danielle

[Outro]
The yellow light will keep its watch until the morning comes
And I will still be near you, breathing soft as evening rain, Danielle
