Yellow Light on the Stairs
Style: Vibraphone drift

[Verse 1]
Down through the railings a soft yellow light comes to find you
Falling so slowly across the old dusty stair
Nothing can hurry a glow moving this way
Only warm patience was ever assigned to you

[Pre-chorus]
Somewhere a door has been left on the latch for you
Somewhere the evening is folding its wings down to rest
Close your eyes now, let the hush gather near

[Chorus]
Faye, the whole house is breathing slow just for you
Quietly holding the dark so it's kind and it's true
Nobody minds if you drift far away
Faye, there is nothing tonight to get through

[Verse 2]
Dust on the step turns to gold when it's late
Softened and still, like a hand laid to rest
Wherever you wander in dreams you are safe
You carry the warmth of that light as you go

[Bridge]
Let every worry lie down where it's small
Sleep is a room with the porch light still on

[Chorus]
Faye, the whole house is breathing slow just for you
Quietly holding the dark so it's kind and it's true
Nobody minds if you drift far away
Faye, there is nothing tonight to get through

[Outro]
The railings still hold that same yellow glow
Watching you sleep, never letting it go
