The Wick Burns Low
Style: Ambient wash

[Verse 1]
A tall red flame is settling deep inside the glass tonight
Its light is folding softer now, so slowly out of sight
You watch it dip and steady like a small and patient friend
There's nowhere you should be but here, where all this quiet ends

[Pre-chorus]
The shadows on the wall are stretching long and turning slow
Your breathing finds the rhythm that the gentle light lets go
Close your eyes, my darling, let the warm dark start to grow

[Chorus]
Ffion, the light is low and leaning into you
Sleep is a quiet room with nothing left to do
Rest now, Ffion, the night has you held tight
Ffion, you are so loved, all through this softest night

[Verse 2]
The wick has burned down small but still it holds its steady glow
Warmth doesn't need to shout to fill a room from head to toe
You curl beneath the blankets like a secret kept from harm
Sleep is only love, arriving quiet, dressed in calm

[Bridge]
Let every worry melt the way the candle melts to gold
Nothing here can touch you, you are safe here, you are held

[Chorus]
Ffion, the light is low and leaning into you
Sleep is a quiet room with nothing left to do
Rest now, Ffion, the night has you held tight
Ffion, you are so loved, all through this softest night

[Outro]
The glass will hold its glow long after you have drifted deep
Wrapped inside this gentle light, you're safe now, fast asleep
