Little Flame
Style: Fingerpicked night

[Verse 1]
A small flame is glowing behind the painted glass
warm little colours moving slow as they pass
Nothing can touch you where the shadows softly play
safe in this quiet at the end of the day

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the room grow still and low
feel how the light leans gentle wherever you go
and drift with me down where the soft dark starts to grow

[Chorus]
Harmony, sleep now, let the light hold you tight
nothing will harm thee through the long, gentle night
You are the calm on thee this whole house has found
Harmony, rest now, let your breathing be the sound

[Verse 2]
Wax melts slowly down the side of the jar
quieter than whispers, softer than any star
Your small hands are curled where the warmth likes to stay
and all of my worry just floats far away

[Bridge]
Let the wick burn low while the whole world turns to rest
you are held so close, you are loved and you are blessed
Every flicker says what my voice cannot quite say
sleep now, little one, until the break of day

[Chorus]
Harmony, sleep now, let the light hold you tight
nothing will harm thee through the long, gentle night
You are the calm on thee this whole house has found
Harmony, rest now, let your breathing be the sound

[Outro]
The little flame settles low behind the glass
and you sleep on gently, held here till night has passed
