A Circle of Gold
Style: Rocking chair waltz

[Verse 1]
A small circle of gold climbs up your heavy duvet
Softly it settles right there where your two hands stayed
Nothing tonight can come and trouble your rest
You are the reason this whole room feels so found

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the last light go quiet
Breathe out slowly, let your shoulders sink deep
There is nowhere safer than this warm little bed

[Chorus]
Edwin, the dark has gone soft and it holds you
Sleep can come easy now, nothing will wake you
Every soft shadow is only just resting
Nobody's loved more tonight than you, Edwin

[Verse 2]
Somewhere the wind moves but never comes near you
Under the covers your breathing has slowed to a hush
Hold onto nothing, just let your whole body sink down
You are so wanted, asleep or awake, it is true

[Bridge]
Let the glow above you keep its quiet watch tonight
Nothing will ask you for anything more than this rest

[Chorus]
Edwin, the dark has gone soft and it holds you
Sleep can come easy now, nothing will wake you
Every soft shadow is only just resting
Nobody's loved more tonight than you, Edwin

[Outro]
That circle of gold will still glow when you're dreaming
Sleep now, my Edwin, you are already safe
