Rain on the Tent
Style: Clarinet nightlight

[Verse 1]
Rain is tapping so softly on the canvas above you
Falling gentle on bark and on the old metal ribs
Nothing out in the dark tonight could ever undo you
Sleep is drifting in slow on these quiet little ribs

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, the night is only breathing
Every shadow tonight is kind and knows your name
Let the rain keep on falling while the dark is leaving

[Chorus]
Everett, hush now, you're the softest treasure it
Ever held in arms so warm and safe tonight
However far you wander, I will measure it
In every gentle breath until the morning light

[Verse 2]
Somewhere out beyond the tent the wind is turning small
Rocking every branch to sleep the way I rock you now
Nothing in this whole wide world could ever let you fall
You are held here, closer than the rain upon the bough

[Chorus]
Everett, hush now, you're the softest treasure it
Ever held in arms so warm and safe tonight
However far you wander, I will measure it
In every gentle breath until the morning light

[Bridge]
No storm has ever been so loud it reached this deep
Where you are lying warm and small beneath the beat
This little roof will hold you safely while you sleep

[Chorus]
Everett, hush now, you're the softest treasure it
Ever held in arms so warm and safe tonight
However far you wander, I will measure it
In every gentle breath until the morning light

[Outro]
The rain is softer now, still tapping on the bark above
Sleep on, my Everett, forever held in love
