Yellow Light, Eliana
Style: Cello cradle

[Verse 1]
A small lamp leans its yellow warmth across the wooden floor
You watch it stretch and settle like a tide that's come to rest
Sleep is only waiting just beyond your own front door
And you are held here softly, you are safe here, you are blessed

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes and let the quiet carry you tonight
Nothing in the shadows means you any kind of harm
I will stay right here beside the fading light

[Chorus]
Eliana, drift away on breath as soft as rain
Every worry of the day has folded up and gone
Rest here, Eliana, nothing calls your name again
Only sleep, and morning waiting gently to come on

[Verse 2]
The bulb hums low behind its shade like something breathing slow
You curl in close to warmth that asks for nothing else from you
Out beyond the window all the busy world lets go
And here inside this small room everything is kind and true

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes and let the quiet carry you tonight
Nothing in the shadows means you any kind of harm
I will stay right here beside the fading light

[Chorus]
Eliana, drift away on breath as soft as rain
Every worry of the day has folded up and gone
Rest here, Eliana, nothing calls your name again
Only sleep, and morning waiting gently to come on

[Bridge]
Somewhere past the doorframe the whole house has gone to rest
You are the softest corner of it, tucked in, held, and blessed

[Chorus]
Eliana, drift away on breath as soft as rain
Every worry of the day has folded up and gone
Rest here, Eliana, nothing calls your name again
Only sleep, and morning waiting gently to come on

[Outro]
The lamp will keep its low and steady watch till morning light
Sleep now, you are golden, you are held, you are alright
