Yellow Light on the Ceiling
Style: Rocking chair waltz

[Verse 1]
Close your eyes now, let the evening settle soft around you
Lights slide slowly, painting gold across the quiet air
Nothing here can reach you, nothing here will ever hound you
Rest inside this rocking calm, so easy, free of care

[Chorus]
Wyatt, hush now, let the whole wide world grow still
Riding gentle on the rhythm of my heartbeat's steady rhyme
Wyatt, nothing in this night was ever built to spill
Sleep is only love, dressed up and given time

[Verse 2]
Watch the amber wash and wander, drifting slow above your head
Warm as any hand that ever chose to hold you near
Every little shadow bends to soften round your bed
Sleep will carry all you are and keep it here

[Pre-chorus]
Hear the seat creak low beneath this rocking, easy weight
Feel how far away the morning waits before it comes
So let your breathing slow and drift, there's no need to wait

[Chorus]
Wyatt, hush now, let the whole wide world grow still
Riding gentle on the rhythm of my heartbeat's steady rhyme
Wyatt, nothing in this night was ever built to spill
Sleep is only love, dressed up and given time

[Bridge]
You are held here, safe as anything can be
Wrapped in warmth that never once will let you fall
Rest now, little one, and let the night be kind to thee

[Chorus]
Wyatt, hush now, let the whole wide world grow still
Riding gentle on the rhythm of my heartbeat's steady rhyme
Wyatt, nothing in this night was ever built to spill
Sleep is only love, dressed up and given time

[Outro]
Sleep now, while the golden light slides soft above your head
Rest easy, love will rock you gently to your bed
