Yellow Under the Door
Style: Clarinet nightlight

[Verse 1]
A yellow line is glowing soft beneath the door tonight
Telling you that someone near is watching over you
The house breathes slow around you as it settles out the light
Every corner of this room believes the same thing too

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes, the dark is only resting on your skin
Nothing here will ever come to take this warmth away
So let the quiet fold you gently in

[Chorus]
Earl, you are the calm this whole house turns around
Softly as a pearl sleeps deep inside its shell
Earl, no need to make a single little sound
The night just wants to hold you well

[Verse 2]
The blanket knows the shape of you and settles where you settle
Your breathing finds its rhythm like a tide that knows its way
Somewhere past the window little stars begin to twirl and mettle
Waiting just to watch you dream until the break of day

[Chorus]
Earl, you are the calm this whole house turns around
Softly as a pearl sleeps deep inside its shell
Earl, no need to make a single little sound
The night just wants to hold you well

[Bridge]
Whatever spins outside this room, whatever whirls or hurries
Cannot touch the quiet built around you here
You are the still point of this whole wide world

[Chorus]
Earl, you are the calm this whole house turns around
Softly as a pearl sleeps deep inside its shell
Earl, no need to make a single little sound
The night just wants to hold you well

[Outro]
The line of light beneath the door will stay there till the morning
Just like this love that never needs a single word of warning
