Amber Light, Little Nancy
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
Rain is tapping soft rhythms on the glass beside your head
Wipers sweep the whole world into a slow and gentle blur
Amber light is glowing warm across your sleepy little face
You are safe here in the quiet, wrapped in every mile we blur

[Pre-chorus]
Wet leather holds the warmth of everywhere we've been today
Every light we pass is dimming as your eyes grow heavy too
Hush now, let the hum of travelling carry you away

[Chorus]
Nancy, close your eyes and drift where the amber shadows play
Nothing in this whole wide night could ever lead you wrong
Nancy, you're the warmest thing inside this rainy grey
Sleep is just a quiet road and you've been safe along

[Verse 2]
Streetlights blur to golden ribbons streaming past the window pane
Every drop that hits the glass is falling soft as breath
Somewhere out beyond the wipers, home is waiting, calm and near
You don't have to keep your eyes open for the rest

[Pre-chorus]
Wet leather holds the warmth of everywhere we've been today
Every light we pass is dimming as your eyes grow heavy too
Hush now, let the hum of travelling carry you away

[Chorus]
Nancy, close your eyes and drift where the amber shadows play
Nothing in this whole wide night could ever lead you wrong
Nancy, you're the warmest thing inside this rainy grey
Sleep is just a quiet road and you've been safe along

[Bridge]
Let the engine hum become the softest sound you've ever known
Nothing waits out there tonight but morning, calm and slow

[Chorus]
Nancy, close your eyes and drift where the amber shadows play
Nothing in this whole wide night could ever lead you wrong
Nancy, you're the warmest thing inside this rainy grey
Sleep is just a quiet road and you've been safe along

[Outro]
Rain still taps its quiet rhythm long after you have gone to sleep
And the amber light keeps watching, soft and steady, yours to keep
