Settle Now, Amir
Style: Humming choir

[Verse 1]
The wool fringe sways so softly where it brushes against your toes
and the footstool holds you steady while the evening settles slow
every worry of the daylight has gone wherever daylight goes
you are wrapped in something gentle that only quiet knows

[Chorus]
Amir, the night is soft and it is only asking you to rest
close your eyes now, Amir, you have nothing left to prove or test
the dark outside is kind tonight, it means you only good
and you are loved here, always, exactly as you should

[Verse 2]
Somewhere near your feet the fringe is still and finally at ease
and the house breathes slower now, it settles like a gentle breeze
every little sound out there has folded into peace
you can let your whole heart loosen, you can let it all release

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let the evening hold you closer than before
let the warmth around your shoulders be the only thing you need
and drift toward whatever waits behind that quiet door

[Chorus]
Amir, the night is soft and it is only asking you to rest
close your eyes now, Amir, you have nothing left to prove or test
the dark outside is kind tonight, it means you only good
and you are loved here, always, exactly as you should

[Bridge]
Nothing here will hurry you, no clock is counting time
every breath you take tonight is fully, simply yours

[Chorus]
Amir, the night is soft and it is only asking you to rest
close your eyes now, Amir, you have nothing left to prove or test
the dark outside is kind tonight, it means you only good
and you are loved here, always, exactly as you should

[Outro]
The fringe lies still against your slippers, resting just like you
sleep now, dear Amir, the whole soft night belongs to you
