Dust Motes in Amber Light

[Chorus] Golden dust motes in the air Sunbeam warm upon my hair Ginger cat with sleepy sighs Reflected in his amber eyes Grandma's rocker, creaking slow Watching gentle flakes of snow This quiet moment, safe and deep Secrets that my heart will keep [Verse] The window pane is old and worn Where winter's frosty breath is born But through it spills a mellow light Chasing shadows of the night It paints the floorboards, honey-gold A story that is never old My tabby friend begins to purr A rumbling, soft, contented stir [Pre-Chorus] I close my eyes, and I can feel His hand so rough, his love so real And then the scent, so sweet and kind An apple pie left far behind [Chorus] Golden dust motes in the air Sunbeam warm upon my hair Ginger cat with sleepy sighs Reflected in his amber eyes Grandma's rocker, creaking slow Watching gentle flakes of snow This quiet moment, safe and deep Secrets that my heart will keep [Bridge] The fire crackles, soft and low A gentle, rhythmic, warming glow Each tiny spark, a memory bright Bathed in this peaceful, fading light My fingers trace the wooden grain Whispering away the pain Just the cat, the sun, the chair And love that lingers everywhere [Verse] The world outside may rush and call Beyond this cozy, sunlit wall But here within this gentle space I find my calm, I find my grace Each falling flake, a whispered word A symphony I've always heard Beneath the surface, soft and true This feeling, old and ever new [Chorus] Golden dust motes in the air Sunbeam warm upon my hair Ginger cat with sleepy sighs Reflected in his amber eyes Grandma's rocker, creaking slow Watching gentle flakes of snow This quiet moment, safe and deep Secrets that my heart will keep [Outro]
