Yellow Light on the Stairs
Style: Rain and piano

[Verse 1]
Yellow light is falling soft across the winding stair
spilling gold on carpet worn from years of climbing there
little feet have made this path a thousand times before
and every step tonight is leading to your door

[Chorus]
Kristian, the house has gone so quiet and so still
hush now, close your eyes, let sleep come if it will
Kristian, my own, no harm can find you here
rest inside this warm and winding light, my dear

[Verse 2]
Somewhere down below the rain is tapping out its tune
brushing on the window like a lullaby in June
climb up through the shadows where the lamplight likes to pool
you were always safest in this warm and golden school

[Pre-chorus]
Breathe now, let the day and all its noise go still
sink into the pillow like a feather down a hill
and let this gentle house sing softly what it will

[Chorus]
Kristian, the house has gone so quiet and so still
hush now, close your eyes, let sleep come if it will
Kristian, my own, no harm can find you here
rest inside this warm and winding light, my dear

[Bridge]
Every worn and faded thread upon this floor has held you close
every step you ever climbed has known you best of all, and chose

[Chorus]
Kristian, the house has gone so quiet and so still
hush now, close your eyes, let sleep come if it will
Kristian, my own, no harm can find you here
rest inside this warm and winding light, my dear

[Outro]
Sleep now where the yellow light still settles on the stair
knowing you are held and warm and wanted always there
