A Stripe of Light
Style: Vibraphone drift

[Verse 1]
A stripe of moonlight lies along the hallway floor tonight
Waiting there so softly just to lead you home
It found the pattern in the rug and turned it silver bright
Because it knows this quiet house is yours alone

[Pre-chorus]
So let your eyes grow heavy as the hush comes creeping near
Every small sound settles as the dark grows kind
There is nothing waiting in the shadows here

[Chorus]
Parker, the light is turning softer than before
Nothing in this house is darker than your rest
Close your eyes, my Parker, safe behind the door
Sleep is just a quiet place where you are blessed

[Verse 2]
The hallway holds its breath while all the rooms are turning still
Every corner folding into gentle grey
Somewhere down the carpet, dreaming waits with open arms until
Morning finds a softer way to call you back to day

[Bridge]
Rest now, let the whole house lean in close around your bed
Every worry loosens as the light grows thin and spread

[Chorus]
Parker, the light is turning softer than before
Nothing in this house is darker than your rest
Close your eyes, my Parker, safe behind the door
Sleep is just a quiet place where you are blessed

[Outro]
The stripe of light will still be waiting when you wake
Watching over you all night for goodness sake
