Feather on the Glass
Style: Cello cradle

[Verse 1]
A feather drifts so slowly past the window where you lie
A shadow moves among the pines and settles with the dark
The whole wide world is folding up its noise beneath the sky
And nothing in the night tonight can touch this quiet park

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes and let the hours grow soft and slow and low
Let the branches hush themselves and let the light let go
There is nothing you must carry now, nothing you must know

[Chorus]
Morgan, sleep is drifting gently down to find you here
Every shadow at your window means no harm at all
You are held and you are wanted, Morgan, always near
Rest inside the calm that catches you before you fall

[Verse 2]
The feather turns and turns again like it forgot to land
Something soft is watching over every breath you take
The pines lean close together like they understand
That you are worth this stillness that the whole night learns to make

[Chorus]
Morgan, sleep is drifting gently down to find you here
Every shadow at your window means no harm at all
You are held and you are wanted, Morgan, always near
Rest inside the calm that catches you before you fall

[Bridge]
Somewhere past the glass the dark is turning warm and slow
You are safe as roots are safe beneath the fallen snow

[Chorus]
Morgan, sleep is drifting gently down to find you here
Every shadow at your window means no harm at all
You are held and you are wanted, Morgan, always near
Rest inside the calm that catches you before you fall

[Outro]
The feather settles somewhere soft and finally comes to rest
Sleep now, Morgan, you were always held and always blessed
