Blue Cotton, Golden Light
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
A soft yellow glow finds the fold of your blanket
gentle as breathing, it settles and lands there
under the blue the whole room turns to amber
and you're already drifting, calm and unplanned there

[Chorus]
Lesley, the light is turning your sheets to gold
Lesley, the night has nothing but you to hold
nothing will wake you, nothing will reach this bed
hush now, my Lesley, softly the hours unfold

[Verse 2]
The cotton breathes slow with every small sigh you make
warm little shapes where your hands have curled and settled
under the lamp the blue goes quiet and deepens
and I could stay here till morning just to watch you

[Pre-chorus]
Somewhere the dark is folding itself around us
somewhere a light keeps low and never wavers
hold onto that glow while your eyes grow heavy

[Chorus]
Lesley, the light is turning your sheets to gold
Lesley, the night has nothing but you to hold
nothing will wake you, nothing will reach this bed
hush now, my Lesley, softly the hours unfold

[Bridge]
Sleep pulls you under, slow as the tide comes in
and I'll keep the light low, watching you settle again

[Chorus]
Lesley, the light is turning your sheets to gold
Lesley, the night has nothing but you to hold
nothing will wake you, nothing will reach this bed
hush now, my Lesley, softly the hours unfold

[Outro]
The yellow glow still hums through the blue cotton fold
sleep well, little Lesley, wrapped up safe and warm
