Small Light on the Stair
Style: Harp lullaby

[Verse 1]
A small moth is tapping soft wings on the glass
Its shadow goes drifting so slow as we pass
Warm light on the stairwell is holding it near
You're wrapped just as warm in this quiet right here

[Pre-chorus]
Every wing that beats is finding its way home
Every little light knows it was never left alone
So let your eyes grow heavy now, there's nothing left to roam

[Chorus]
Jeff, the whole house softens down to sleep tonight
Nothing in the dark can touch this gentle light
Close your eyes, my Jeff, and drift on peaceful and slow
You are so deeply loved, more than you'll ever know

[Verse 2]
The bulb on the wall hums low like a lullaby
Wings settle to rest as the evening rolls by
Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to stir
You can let it all go, you are safe as you were

[Pre-chorus]
Every wing that beats is finding its way home
Every little light knows it was never left alone
So let your eyes grow heavy now, there's nothing left to roam

[Chorus]
Jeff, the whole house softens down to sleep tonight
Nothing in the dark can touch this gentle light
Close your eyes, my Jeff, and drift on peaceful and slow
You are so deeply loved, more than you'll ever know

[Bridge]
Sleep is only a doorway, softly held, softly kept
Someone is watching over every breath while you slept

[Chorus]
Jeff, the whole house softens down to sleep tonight
Nothing in the dark can touch this gentle light
Close your eyes, my Jeff, and drift on peaceful and slow
You are so deeply loved, more than you'll ever know

[Outro]
The moth folds its wings by the warm glowing glass
Sleep now, little Jeff, let the whole night pass
