Little Flame
Style: Flute and pad

[Verse 1]
A short white wick is burning low upon the shelf tonight
Wrapped safe inside its little blue glass, holding on to light
Watch how gently it flickers, never anything but true
You are held the same as that small and steady light

[Pre-chorus]
Softly now the whole wide house is settling down to rest
Nothing here can reach you, nothing needs to be addressed
Close your eyes and let the quiet carry what comes next

[Chorus]
Evie, sleep is calling soft and low
Deep as any love could ever grow
Nothing in this night will ever harm you
You are cherished more than you could know

[Verse 2]
Wooden shelves are creaking gently, keeping every secret still
Underneath the calm blue glass, the flame is doing all it will
You don't need to hold your eyes open one more minute now
Rest is waiting for you, warm and close and standing still

[Chorus]
Evie, sleep is calling soft and low
Deep as any love could ever grow
Nothing in this night will ever harm you
You are cherished more than you could know

[Bridge]
Even when the little flame burns down and fades from sight
You will still be carried gently through the dark of night

[Chorus]
Evie, sleep is calling soft and low
Deep as any love could ever grow
Nothing in this night will ever harm you
You are cherished more than you could know

[Outro]
Somewhere on a shelf a little jar still holds its glow
Sleep now, you are safe, and morning always comes to you
