Orange Light, Quiet Ride
Style: Music box

[Verse 1]
Orange light slides over scratches on the window by your head
Every flicker finds you drifting further down instead
Nothing out there needs to wake you, nothing out there stays
So let the whole world blur and soften into greys

[Chorus]
Paige, the night is carrying you gently while you rest
Close your eyes, my love, you always pass this test
Paige, there is nothing waiting past this quiet stage
Just sleep and me and this small, moving cage

[Verse 2]
The engine hums a lullaby it learned from rocking chairs
Every little bump just says that someone still cares
Lights go sliding, sliding, gold across your sleepy face
There is no hurry here, we are not in any race

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let your breathing slow to match the wheels below
Let the passing lamps be all the stars you need to know
Rest against me now, and let the gentle rhythm grow

[Chorus]
Paige, the night is carrying you gently while you rest
Close your eyes, my love, you always pass this test
Paige, there is nothing waiting past this quiet stage
Just sleep and me and this small, moving cage

[Bridge]
Wherever this road bends, I will be bending with you
Whatever waits at the end, I will carry you through it too

[Chorus]
Paige, the night is carrying you gently while you rest
Close your eyes, my love, you always pass this test
Paige, there is nothing waiting past this quiet stage
Just sleep and me and this small, moving cage

[Outro]
The lights go on sliding gently, softer now than any sound
Sleep, my Paige, you are already safe, already found
