Stripe of Light Under the Door
Style: Cello cradle

[Verse 1]
A thin stripe of light lies flat beneath the door tonight
Waiting there so softly, patient, calm and warm and bright
Close your eyes now, let the house go quiet around your head
Nothing in the dark can reach you, safe here in your bed

[Pre-chorus]
Listen how the whole house settles into its own hush
Even shadows in the corner slow their steady rush
Somewhere just beyond your window, sleep is calling soft and low

[Chorus]
Wyatt, hush now, let the quiet wrap around you tight
Nobody could love you more than we do here tonight
Rest your small hand open, let the worry drift and go
Wyatt, you are held here, safer than you'll ever know

[Verse 2]
Somewhere down the hallway, footsteps soften, then they still
Every little sound tonight is gentle, none can spill
You are wrapped in blankets warmer than the summer sun
Dream a while of running fields when all the day is done

[Pre-chorus]
Listen how the whole house settles into its own hush
Even shadows in the corner slow their steady rush
Somewhere just beyond your window, sleep is calling soft and low

[Chorus]
Wyatt, hush now, let the quiet wrap around you tight
Nobody could love you more than we do here tonight
Rest your small hand open, let the worry drift and go
Wyatt, you are held here, safer than you'll ever know

[Bridge]
Long after you're asleep we'll still be watching over you
Counting all the ways this small quiet room loves you too

[Chorus]
Wyatt, hush now, let the quiet wrap around you tight
Nobody could love you more than we do here tonight
Rest your small hand open, let the worry drift and go
Wyatt, you are held here, safer than you'll ever know

[Outro]
That thin stripe of light will still be glowing when you wake
Watching over you all night for love's own gentle sake
