  Verse 1

  A strip of yellow light falls soft across the floor tonight It slips beneath the door to say that you are not alone The whole house settles low around this quiet, gentle light And every hush tonight is only yours, my Debbie, my own

  Pre-chorus

  The dark can keep its distance while this small light stays with you It carries every promise that the morning will come true So let your eyes grow heavy now, there's nothing left to do

  Chorus

  Debbie, Debbie, close your eyes beneath the gentle glow You are held here safe and warm while the quiet rivers flow Nothing in the shadows here can ever trouble you Sleep now, Debbie, sleep, the whole night keeps you through

  Verse 2

  Somewhere down the hallway a small light is standing guard It never blinks or wavers though the night outside is hard You are wrapped in something softer than the darkness ever was Just breathe now, little one, and drift beneath that gentle glow

  Bridge

  Let the pillow hold you like the safest place you know Let the light along the floor be all you need to know

  Chorus

  Debbie, Debbie, close your eyes beneath the gentle glow You are held here safe and warm while the quiet rivers flow Nothing in the shadows here can ever trouble you Sleep now, Debbie, sleep, the whole night keeps you through

  Outro

  That thin line of light will still be waiting when you wake Sleep now, it was only ever laid there for your sake

  Verse 1

  Watch how slowly the little flame is bending its head down low Melting soft and quiet like it has nowhere left to go The whole room breathes with you, warm and easy in the dark Nothing tonight will wake you, nothing tonight will show

  Pre-chorus

  The wax is falling gentle, sliding down in one long line Everything in this room is settling, everything is fine Close now, let the warm light carry you along

  Chorus

  Debbie, the flame is bending low and easy just for you Nothing in this small room wants for anything but you Soft as wax that slips and pools and never makes a sound Debbie, sleep is coming warm and slow and true

  Verse 2

  The little flame keeps burning low, it never asks for more It only wants to warm the small space by your door Let your shoulders fall the way the candle lets its light fall too There is nothing waiting for you but the floor

  Pre-chorus

  The wax is falling gentle, sliding down in one long line Everything in this room is settling, everything is fine Close now, let the warm light carry you along

  Chorus

  Debbie, the flame is bending low and easy just for you Nothing in this small room wants for anything but you Soft as wax that slips and pools and never makes a sound Debbie, sleep is coming warm and slow and true

  Bridge

  Even when the little flame has settled out of sight You are held here safely by the warmth it leaves behind Sleep is only the room remembering the light

  Chorus

  Debbie, the flame is bending low and easy just for you Nothing in this small room wants for anything but you Soft as wax that slips and pools and never makes a sound Debbie, sleep is coming warm and slow and true

  Outro

  The little flame has gone to sleep, and left its warmth for you Rest now, Debbie, in the quiet that it left behind for you

  Verse 1

  Look how the flakes come drifting slow past the darkened pane White as feathers falling soft on a world gone still There is nothing out there that can reach you now, my Debbie Only quiet, only night, only my hand on the sill

  Pre-chorus

  The cold stays outside where it belongs, far beyond the glass Every falling flake is settling you deeper into rest Close your eyes now, let the hush of evening finally pass

  Chorus

  Debbie, the snow is falling gentle and you are held so near Nothing in this wide dark world could ever bring you harm Sleep now, Debbie, there is nothing in this night to fear Wrapped up safe and certain in the quiet of my arm

  Verse 2

  Watch how the flakes forget to hurry as they drift and fall Taking their slow time the way your breathing does tonight There is no clock that matters now, no reason to recall Just the hush outside the window and the dimming light

  Pre-chorus

  The cold stays outside where it belongs, far beyond the glass Every falling flake is settling you deeper into rest Close your eyes now, let the hush of evening finally pass

  Chorus

  Debbie, the snow is falling gentle and you are held so near Nothing in this wide dark world could ever bring you harm Sleep now, Debbie, there is nothing in this night to fear Wrapped up safe and certain in the quiet of my arm

  Bridge

  Let the whole world turn to white and softly disappear Nothing needs you now but sleeping, nothing but staying here

  Chorus

  Debbie, the snow is falling gentle and you are held so near Nothing in this wide dark world could ever bring you harm Sleep now, Debbie, there is nothing in this night to fear Wrapped up safe and certain in the quiet of my arm

  Outro

  Still the flakes keep falling soft against the darkened glass Sleep on, little Debbie, safe while all the night goes past
