Little Beam
Style: Accordion cradle

[Verse 1]
A little beam sneaks under the duvet tonight
finding you curled where the shadows are light
dust turns to gold in that thin, quiet ray
softly it settles the way good things stay

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the small light go dim
nothing can reach you, nothing gets in
hold onto warm as the hush starts to grow

[Chorus]
Ciara, the night has room just for you
under the covers where warm gathers too
sleep finds you gentle, sleep finds you near
Ciara, there's nothing but quiet in here

[Verse 2]
Somewhere the moon leans its face to the glass
watching the small beam of light as it passes
it touches your cheek like it knows you by name
tucks itself softly and stays just the same

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the small light go dim
nothing can reach you, nothing gets in
hold onto warm as the hush starts to grow

[Chorus]
Ciara, the night has room just for you
under the covers where warm gathers too
sleep finds you gentle, sleep finds you near
Ciara, there's nothing but quiet in here

[Bridge]
Rest now, the dark is a blanket that's kind
carrying you soft to the edge of your mind
every small breath is a step down to sleep

[Chorus]
Ciara, the night has room just for you
under the covers where warm gathers too
sleep finds you gentle, sleep finds you near
Ciara, there's nothing but quiet in here

[Outro]
That small beam of light will still be there when you wake
and warm will be waiting, however long that takes
