Yellow Light in the Hall
Style: Soft piano

[Verse 1]
Yellow light is stretching soft across the hallway floor tonight
Past midnight it still lingers on, so gentle and so slight
I follow it to find you curled beneath your blanket deep
And nothing in this house feels half as quiet or as right

[Pre-chorus]
The house breathes slow around you, every corner soft and still
Somewhere past the window, the whole world is holding on
And I could stay right here and watch you dreaming for a while

[Chorus]
Ezra, close your eyes now, let the quiet carry you away
Nothing in the dark tonight will ever lead you far astray
There's a warmth here just for you, it never once will fade
Rest now, Ezra, till you find the morning and the day

[Verse 2]
Somewhere down the hallway, all the lights are going low
And every little sound has learned to move so soft and slow
You are held here safer than the moon is in the sky
And nothing needs to hurry, nowhere in the world to go

[Bridge]
Sleep is just a river and I'll keep you near the shore
Whatever you are dreaming, you don't need to reach for more

[Chorus]
Ezra, close your eyes now, let the quiet carry you away
Nothing in the dark tonight will ever lead you far astray
There's a warmth here just for you, it never once will fade
Rest now, Ezra, till you find the morning and the day

[Outro]
The light along the floorboards will be waiting when you wake
Sleep now, and know you're held here for your own dear sake
