Yellow Bars of Light
Style: Flute and pad

[Verse 1]
Yellow bars of light slide soft across the seat where you are dreaming
Warm and slow they pass like water, gentle in their gleaming
Every light that drifts above you knows the way back home
You are held so close tonight, you never sleep alone

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the humming of the road be still
Every shadow bends to shelter you upon this quiet hill
Rest is coming closer now, it's waiting just beyond

[Chorus]
Josephine, the night is soft and you are safe within it
Every star tonight was made to watch you every minute
Sleep is gentle, sleep is near, and love is in between
Hold on to the calm and quiet, dear Josephine

[Verse 2]
The velvet dark is faded blue and folded soft around you
Nothing in this whole wide world will ever come to hound you
Buckled in and rocked so slow beneath the amber glow
You are cradled, you are certain, everything you know

[Bridge]
Let the engine hum a tune that only you can hear
Every mile that passes by is bringing morning near

[Chorus]
Josephine, the night is soft and you are safe within it
Every star tonight was made to watch you every minute
Sleep is gentle, sleep is near, and love is in between
Hold on to the calm and quiet, dear Josephine

[Outro]
The lights will fade to quiet as the darkness settles in
Rest now, little Josephine, and let the soft night win
