The Last Warm Light
Style: Harp lullaby

[Verse 1]
The fire is sinking low behind the bars tonight
Grey ash comes sliding soft as breath let go
You're wrapped up warm before the last light dies
And nothing in this house will ever let you go

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, the embers know it's time to rest
The dark outside can't touch you where you lie
So let your tired little eyes start closing slow

[Chorus]
Brandon, the night is holding you so gently
Nothing can reach you, nothing needs to try
You are the warmest thing that I will ever plan on
Sleep now, Brandon, underneath this quiet sky

[Verse 2]
The coals are turning softer, breathing out their glow
Falling into stillness like a page turned down
You curl in closer as the last flame settles low
And every worry I had melts without a sound

[Bridge]
I'm not going anywhere, I'm right here standin'
Watching over all the hours till the light returns
You never have to wonder where you're landin'
This is the only home this small heart yearns

[Chorus]
Brandon, the night is holding you so gently
Nothing can reach you, nothing needs to try
You are the warmest thing that I will ever plan on
Sleep now, Brandon, underneath this quiet sky

[Outro]
The ash lies quiet now where once the fire burned bright
Sleep on, my love, you are my last warm light
