Embers for Eesa
Style: Soft piano

[Verse 1]
The fire is folding down to a small and steady glow
It breathes out slow and quiet as the dark begins to creep
But nothing in this house would ever let that warmth go
You are held here safe and certain all the way to sleep

[Pre-chorus]
Watch how the red light settles soft along the wall
Nothing out there in the night can reach you here at all
So let your breathing slow now, let your small hands fall

[Chorus]
Eesa, the shadows are turning to amber and rest
Sleep is a river that carries you gentle and slow
Nobody's arms could hold a heart the way this one is blessed
Eesa, you're warmer than any fire's glow

[Verse 2]
The last log settles and sighs as it lets its heat go
Sending one final flicker up along the dim ceiling
You are the reason this whole room stays soft and slow
You are the calm at the centre of all of this feeling

[Bridge]
When every spark has dimmed and the grate is only grey
Something of that warmth is folded into how you sleep tonight

[Chorus]
Eesa, the shadows are turning to amber and rest
Sleep is a river that carries you gentle and slow
Nobody's arms could hold a heart the way this one is blessed
Eesa, you're warmer than any fire's glow

[Outro]
The embers go quiet but never quite lose their light
Sleep now, small one, held soft and warm through the night
