Amber and Gold
Style: Ambient wash

[Verse 1]
The lamp throws its amber light soft across the wall
and shadows go wandering slow across the floral vine
you watch them with eyes that are heavy, about to fall
and everything gentle in this room is only yours and mine

[Chorus]
Holden, the light is turning golden just for you
sleep now, the whole wide house is holden safe tonight
Holden, I'll stay until the darkness turns to blue
nothing can touch you here beneath this amber light

[Verse 2]
The wallpaper flowers lean in closer as the night grows deep
and every shadow moving slow is only kind and true
I'll hum you something quiet till you slip away to sleep
there's nothing in this room that isn't watching over you

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let your breathing slow and settle like the light
let the amber glass shade hold its warmth around your bed
the whole wide world can wait outside this golden night

[Chorus]
Holden, the light is turning golden just for you
sleep now, the whole wide house is holden safe tonight
Holden, I'll stay until the darkness turns to blue
nothing can touch you here beneath this amber light

[Bridge]
Long shadows fold themselves so soft around your little bed
every olden tale of comfort lives in this one room
I'll keep the small lamp burning gold till morning's overhead

[Chorus]
Holden, the light is turning golden just for you
sleep now, the whole wide house is holden safe tonight
Holden, I'll stay until the darkness turns to blue
nothing can touch you here beneath this amber light

[Outro]
Sleep now, the amber shade still glows across the floral wall
and I am here beside you, holden safe through it all
