Small Red Light
Style: Harp lullaby

[Verse 1]
There is a small red light that watches from the wooden box
It never blinks, it never sleeps, it holds its steady glow
You do not need to keep your eyes open a moment longer
I will be here after the last of the light goes low

[Pre-chorus]
The house has gone quiet and folded its walls in close
Nothing can reach you now the day has let you go
Rest now, and let the dark be soft and slow

[Chorus]
Bilal, the night has room enough to hold you safe till morning
You are the warmest thing inside this whole dim little house
Sleep does not take you far, it just sets you down so gently
Bilal, however far you drift, I will not let you out

[Verse 2]
Somewhere a small light hums along without a single worry
It does not ask for anything, it just stays lit and true
That is how I feel about you curled up under blankets
Steady, glowing, needing nothing else but simply you

[Pre-chorus]
The house has gone quiet and folded its walls in close
Nothing can reach you now the day has let you go
Rest now, and let the dark be soft and slow

[Chorus]
Bilal, the night has room enough to hold you safe till morning
You are the warmest thing inside this whole dim little house
Sleep does not take you far, it just sets you down so gently
Bilal, however far you drift, I will not let you out

[Bridge]
Close your eyes and let the small light keep its patient watch
Nothing in this room would ever wish you harm

[Chorus]
Bilal, the night has room enough to hold you safe till morning
You are the warmest thing inside this whole dim little house
Sleep does not take you far, it just sets you down so gently
Bilal, however far you drift, I will not let you out

[Outro]
Sleep now, the small red light will keep its steady glowing
Long after you have drifted off, I will still be here
