Small Brass Light
Style: Music box

[Verse 1]
A small brass dish holds the last of the light
warm little pool that keeps burning tonight
the wick has gone soft and it bends to a curl
and you are the calm at the centre so bright

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the wax settle slow
nothing to chase and nowhere to go
just this warm hush before sleep starts to grow

[Chorus]
Dawn, you are the light I keep low and near
softest little glow that I gathered here
every worry of the day has quietly withdrawn
and I will stay beside you, Dawn

[Verse 2]
The flame leans in close like it wants to stay near
it never once flickers when you are right here
the whole room goes gentle, the shadows lie still
and sleep comes in slowly, so soft and so clear

[Bridge]
Let the small light burn low while the house settles in
you are held here so safely beneath your soft skin

[Chorus]
Dawn, you are the light I keep low and near
softest little glow that I gathered here
every worry of the day has quietly withdrawn
and I will stay beside you, Dawn

[Outro]
The little brass dish holds its warmth through the dark
and you carry that same gentle spark
