Circle of Light
Style: Vibraphone drift

[Verse 1]
A tall brass lamp throws gold across the floor tonight
and every board beneath it holds the softened light
you're curled up warm inside that quiet yellow ring
while all the house goes still and settles into sleeping

[Pre-chorus]
Your eyes are growing heavy, heavier each breath
the whole wide room is folding into gentle rest
and closer now, and closer, sleep is drawing near

[Chorus]
Jasmine, the light will keep on burning low for you
hushed and steady, watching over all you do
nothing in this house will fade before you're fast asleep
Jasmine, I'll be near you, this quiet peace I'll keep

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past that circle, shadows learn to lie down too
every corner softens, borrowing that glow from you
nothing in the dark tonight has come to do you harm
you are held and steady, you are safe here, you are warm

[Bridge]
Let the lamp burn low and steady while you drift away
carry all its warmth inside you till the break of day

[Chorus]
Jasmine, the light will keep on burning low for you
hushed and steady, watching over all you do
nothing in this house will fade before you're fast asleep
Jasmine, I'll be near you, this quiet peace I'll keep

[Outro]
Somewhere the brass lamp glows on, steady on the floor
sleep now, you are held here, always, evermore
