Grey Feathers on the Sill
Style: Soft piano

[Verse 1]
Grey feathers brush the gutter while the house breathes low and slow
Pale moonlight finds the windowsill and pools there soft as snow
You are the warmest thing within these quiet walls tonight
Sleep now and let the dark outside stay far beyond the light

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, the wind has nothing it can do
Nothing out there gets to reach for you
Close your eyes, there's somewhere soft to land

[Chorus]
Tiffany, the night is only kind here in this room
Nothing touches you while I am watching over you
Rest your head, there is no reason left to fight the dark
Tiffany, you're held here safely, small and precious, like a spark

[Verse 2]
The cold outside just taps and turns and cannot find a way
Somewhere far off feathers settle, waiting out till day
But here your breathing slows to something gentle as a tide
You never have to face the smallest shadow on your own inside

[Chorus]
Tiffany, the night is only kind here in this room
Nothing touches you while I am watching over you
Rest your head, there is no reason left to fight the dark
Tiffany, you're held here safely, small and precious, like a spark

[Bridge]
Let the whole wide sky keep turning slow above the roof
Nothing that it carries ever needs to be your proof
You are already certain, already loved enough

[Chorus]
Tiffany, the night is only kind here in this room
Nothing touches you while I am watching over you
Rest your head, there is no reason left to fight the dark
Tiffany, you're held here safely, small and precious, like a spark

[Outro]
The moonlight settles quiet now upon the sill and stays
Sleep on, my Tiffany, and drift through softer, kinder days
