Feathers on the Fence
Style: Gentle acoustic

[Verse 1]
Soft brown feathers lie still where the night has come to rest
Damp wood holding them gently, the way that you are blessed
Nothing stirs in the hush of this calm and quiet hour
You are folded up warm in a safe and sleepy tower

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, the dark is only kind
Nothing waits out there that you need to find
Just the quiet, just the warmth, just you and sleep entwined

[Chorus]
Nash, the whole wide night is holding you so near
Every star has leaned in close to whisper you are dear
Nash, you rest as soft as feathers settling down to stay
Sleep will carry you until the gentle break of day

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the fence line the wind has gone to sleep
Even shadows curl up small and settle in the deep
You are wrapped in something softer than the falling dusk can be
Every breath you take tonight is calm and slow and free

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, the dark is only kind
Nothing waits out there that you need to find
Just the quiet, just the warmth, just you and sleep entwined

[Chorus]
Nash, the whole wide night is holding you so near
Every star has leaned in close to whisper you are dear
Nash, you rest as soft as feathers settling down to stay
Sleep will carry you until the gentle break of day

[Bridge]
Hush now, little one, there is nowhere else to be
Only this quiet moment, only you and me

[Chorus]
Nash, the whole wide night is holding you so near
Every star has leaned in close to whisper you are dear
Nash, you rest as soft as feathers settling down to stay
Sleep will carry you until the gentle break of day

[Outro]
Feathers rest unmoving where the quiet loves to stay
Sleep now, gentle Nash, and drift so softly into day
