Brown Feathers Settling
Style: Clarinet nightlight

[Verse 1]
An owl keeps its watch on the old brick chimney stack tonight
Its brown feathers ruffled soft against the cold night air
And nothing in the world could shake that quiet, steady sight
You are held the same way, wrapped in warmth and gentle care

[Chorus]
Raya, Raya, the moon is low and kind
Close your eyes now, let the whole house breathe with you
Somewhere warm and small, you're never far behind
Raya, Raya, the night belongs to you

[Verse 2]
The owl outside blinks slowly in the pale and silver moonlight
Watching over rooftops while the whole wide street lies still
You are wrapped up snug and steady, tucked in safe and tight
Nothing in the dark tonight can climb up to this sill

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let the day go quiet, let it drift and fall away
Every little sound grows softer, sinking low and slow
Close your eyes, my love is staying right here where you

[Chorus]
Raya, Raya, the moon is low and kind
Close your eyes now, let the whole house breathe with you
Somewhere warm and small, you're never far behind
Raya, Raya, the night belongs to you

[Bridge]
Wings fold soft against the chimney, still against the sky
Nothing needs to move or worry, nothing needs to stir
You are safe as feathers settling, warm as breath nearby

[Chorus]
Raya, Raya, the moon is low and kind
Close your eyes now, let the whole house breathe with you
Somewhere warm and small, you're never far behind
Raya, Raya, the night belongs to you

[Outro]
The owl folds its wings now, the chimney settles into rest
Sleep now, little Raya, you are held and you are blessed
