Yellow Through the Red
Style: Fingerpicked night

[Verse 1]
The little tent glows gold where the light comes leaking through
Soft and warm as anything the dark has ever made
Nothing in this whole wide world could ever reach for you
Not while you are curled up safe inside this warm arcade

[Pre-chorus]
So let the evening settle slow around your sleepy head
Let every worry drift away and melt into the floor
There's nothing left to carry now, just this small quiet bed

[Chorus]
Kate, the light is holding you, so soft and low and late
Nothing here can hurt you now, not one single thing
You are precious, you are held, you are worth the wait
Kate, my Kate, sleep on and on, you're safe as anything

[Verse 2]
The red walls hum a colour that no daylight ever knew
Quiet as a heartbeat that keeps time here just for you
Every breath you're breathing now is slow and safe and true
Nothing needs to happen except sleep, the whole night through

[Pre-chorus]
So let the evening settle slow around your sleepy head
Let every worry drift away and melt into the floor
There's nothing left to carry now, just this small quiet bed

[Chorus]
Kate, the light is holding you, so soft and low and late
Nothing here can hurt you now, not one single thing
You are precious, you are held, you are worth the wait
Kate, my Kate, sleep on and on, you're safe as anything

[Bridge]
Somewhere past this glowing wall the whole night waits so still
Nothing out there matters more than you asleep and warm

[Chorus]
Kate, the light is holding you, so soft and low and late
Nothing here can hurt you now, not one single thing
You are precious, you are held, you are worth the wait
Kate, my Kate, sleep on and on, you're safe as anything

[Outro]
The gold light dims to amber as your breathing settles deep
Sleep now, Kate, the whole night long belongs to you and sleep
