Early morning melody



Ecrite par Kate Wolf


Early morning melody
Playing in the scenery
Of my mind
Rainy days and ocean tides
Through the hills and the greenwood sides
Like a windchime

I think of you that way a lot
Singing to the coffee pot
And the kitchen wall
Always up before the sun
Picking out some pretty run
On the strings like a waterfall

You've given me so many songs
Ones that kept me going on
When I'd wonder why
Weaving through the busy days
They were colors in the misty haze
Like rainbow rhymes

Reminding me that even prison walls
Turn to dust and fall
Before the open sky
And love can find you in the darkest hour
And touch you as a flower
On colored wings...

But I thought I'd let you know
I heard you sing soft and low
When I woke today
I got up to play along
And found myself with a morning song
To send your way

Thanking you for all the times
You've listened to these sunrise lines
I've made for you
I see your face before me now
Smiling as if you know somehow
You've touched my day like the dew
[Drops ?] in the morning to the grass
