The Little Flame Burns Low
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
Watch how slowly the little flame is bending its head down low
Melting soft and quiet like it has nowhere left to go
The whole room breathes with you, warm and easy in the dark
Nothing tonight will wake you, nothing tonight will show

[Pre-chorus]
The wax is falling gentle, sliding down in one long line
Everything in this room is settling, everything is fine
Close now, let the warm light carry you along

[Chorus]
Debbie, the flame is bending low and easy just for you
Nothing in this small room wants for anything but you
Soft as wax that slips and pools and never makes a sound
Debbie, sleep is coming warm and slow and true

[Verse 2]
The little flame keeps burning low, it never asks for more
It only wants to warm the small space by your door
Let your shoulders fall the way the candle lets its light fall too
There is nothing waiting for you but the floor

[Pre-chorus]
The wax is falling gentle, sliding down in one long line
Everything in this room is settling, everything is fine
Close now, let the warm light carry you along

[Chorus]
Debbie, the flame is bending low and easy just for you
Nothing in this small room wants for anything but you
Soft as wax that slips and pools and never makes a sound
Debbie, sleep is coming warm and slow and true

[Bridge]
Even when the little flame has settled out of sight
You are held here safely by the warmth it leaves behind
Sleep is only the room remembering the light

[Chorus]
Debbie, the flame is bending low and easy just for you
Nothing in this small room wants for anything but you
Soft as wax that slips and pools and never makes a sound
Debbie, sleep is coming warm and slow and true

[Outro]
The little flame has gone to sleep, and left its warmth for you
Rest now, Debbie, in the quiet that it left behind for you
