Blue Flame Waltz
Style: Rocking chair waltz

[Verse 1]
A small blue flame is glowing low beneath the kettle's steel
it flickers soft and steady while the whole house drifts asleep
and everything is quiet now, there's nothing you need feel
except how very loved you are, a love both wide and deep

[Pre-chorus]
The night is only darkness wrapped around a gentle light
and every little worry can wait until the morning bright
so let your breathing slow right down and float into the night

[Chorus]
Darcie, Darcie, rest your head upon the pillow now
the whole wide world can wait until the morning shows you how
nothing in the dark tonight will ever bring you harm
just Darcie, safe and certain, held inside my arm

[Verse 2]
The kitchen light hums low and small, a tiny steady star
it doesn't need to shine too far, just where the sleepers are
and that is all the love you need, it doesn't travel far
it stays right here beside your bed however small you are

[Chorus]
Darcie, Darcie, rest your head upon the pillow now
the whole wide world can wait until the morning shows you how
nothing in the dark tonight will ever bring you harm
just Darcie, safe and certain, held inside my arm

[Bridge]
Let the hours turn without a sound
let the darkness settle soft around
nothing here will ever let you down
this is the safest place that can be found

[Chorus]
Darcie, Darcie, rest your head upon the pillow now
the whole wide world can wait until the morning shows you how
nothing in the dark tonight will ever bring you harm
just Darcie, safe and certain, held inside my arm

[Outro]
The little blue flame will keep its watch till morning comes
and you will still be loved the same beneath the rising sun
