Brown Feathers
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
Brown feathers rest so quiet against the old chimney stone
Softly they hold their warmth while the whole house breathes and sighs
Nothing tonight can reach you, you are not out there alone
Sleep pulls a gentle blanket low across the darkened skies

[Pre-chorus]
Somewhere a small wing settles, folding the night in tight
Hush now, the hour is gentle, nothing will ask you to wake
Let your small breaths grow slower, matching the calm of the night

[Chorus]
Adrian, the dark is only feathers laid soft on stone
Quiet as a wing that's found its warm and steady place
Nobody will wake you, Adrian, you're never alone
Sleep now in the hush that gathers gently round your face

[Verse 2]
Feathers brush the window glass so lightly you'd barely hear
Some small thing outside is settling too, just like you should
Nothing in this house tonight will bring you cause to fear
Rest inside the calm that's held here since the day you could

[Pre-chorus]
Somewhere a small wing settles, folding the night in tight
Hush now, the hour is gentle, nothing will ask you to wake
Let your small breaths grow slower, matching the calm of the night

[Chorus]
Adrian, the dark is only feathers laid soft on stone
Quiet as a wing that's found its warm and steady place
Nobody will wake you, Adrian, you're never alone
Sleep now in the hush that gathers gently round your face

[Bridge]
You are held the way the chimney holds the warm feathers still
Loved as steady as the roof stands quiet against the chill

[Chorus]
Adrian, the dark is only feathers laid soft on stone
Quiet as a wing that's found its warm and steady place
Nobody will wake you, Adrian, you're never alone
Sleep now in the hush that gathers gently round your face

[Outro]
Somewhere the brown feathers rest, so still against the chimney stone
Sleep now, small one, you were never once left out here alone
