Under the Oak Leaves
Style: Ambient wash

[Verse 1]
The rain came sudden but you never made a sound
Safe beneath the hood where the oak leaves gathered round
Every scrape and rustle just a soft and passing tune
You are held so gently, little one, all the while

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the falling hush surround you
Nothing in this whole wide night could ever hurt you
Sleep is coming soft as rain to carry you a mile

[Chorus]
Kyle, the night is holding you so near
Every shadow softens when you're here
Rest now underneath the quiet sky and dial down your worry
Kyle, there's nothing waiting you should fear

[Verse 2]
The leaves keep tapping gentle on the fabric like a drum
Warm and dry inside while all the outside rain has come
Every little sound out there is just the world's slow tune
You are wrapped up tender, safe as anything worthwhile

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the falling hush surround you
Nothing in this whole wide night could ever hurt you
Sleep is coming soft as rain to carry you a mile

[Chorus]
Kyle, the night is holding you so near
Every shadow softens when you're here
Rest now underneath the quiet sky and dial down your worry
Kyle, there's nothing waiting you should fear

[Bridge]
Rain will pass and morning always finds its way back home
You were never once alone beneath that gentle dome

[Chorus]
Kyle, the night is holding you so near
Every shadow softens when you're here
Rest now underneath the quiet sky and dial down your worry
Kyle, there's nothing waiting you should fear

[Outro]
The leaves have settled quiet now against the fading hood
Sleep well, little Kyle, you are so deeply understood
