I was dabbling in the affairs of the heart
|
Against the backdrop of a broken one
|
And I was grappling with a promise I'd begun
|
If only an unspoken one
|
|
But in the peaceful pre-dawn, with the outlines getting clearer
|
I saw a child's reflection in the mirror
|
I was driving with the windows down
|
The day had not arrived yet but the morning had
|
And with the morning came the morning sounds
|
|
Chorus:
|
I could hear the morning sounds
|
And the mysteries astound me
|
And the struggle it surrounds me
|
But it was only peace that found me
|
When I heard the morning sounds
|
|
I was leaving the apartment of some
|
Ballerina waitress girl I'd met the month before
|
And I was grieving for the dream she'd started making
|
And the parts of me I knew I'd never show her
|
|
But in the dawn's confusion as the living things awaken
|
I felt the joyful side of me start shaking
|
And fatigue gave way to ecstasy
|
The day had not arrived yet but the morning had
|
And with the morning came the morning sounds
|
|
Chorus
|
|
I could hear the morning sounds
|
Said it was only peace that found me
|
When I heard the morning sounds
|
|
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
|
