Yellow Light on the Wall
Style: Fingerpicked night

[Verse 1]
A yellow light is warming the corner of the wall
It spreads so slow and gentle while the evening starts to fall
The whole wide room grows softer as the quiet wraps it all
And nothing in this house tonight will trouble you at all

[Pre-chorus]
The dark outside is nothing, it can never reach this deep
There's nowhere safer waiting than the space you have to sleep
So let the hush come closer as your eyes begin to keep

[Chorus]
Laura, the light is holding you like something rare and true
Every corner of this room was made to shelter you
Laura, there's a warmth that only settles in for you
Sleep now, little Laura, there is nothing left to do

[Verse 2]
The wall remembers every glow that ever touched it soft
It keeps the colour of the evenings we have known aloft
You are the reason this whole house feels lifted up and loft
No storm has ever found a home in rooms you're kept in oft

[Chorus]
Laura, the light is holding you like something rare and true
Every corner of this room was made to shelter you
Laura, there's a warmth that only settles in for you
Sleep now, little Laura, there is nothing left to do

[Bridge]
Breathe slow now, let the evening carry all its weight for you
There's a whole night waiting gently just to watch you through

[Chorus]
Laura, the light is holding you like something rare and true
Every corner of this room was made to shelter you
Laura, there's a warmth that only settles in for you
Sleep now, little Laura, there is nothing left to do

[Outro]
The yellow light will stay here warming softly on the wall
Watching over Laura until morning comes to call
