One Morning

(album: Silent Letter - 1979)

One morning when the mist came down
I woke up early and I looked around
My baby slept, the sky was blue
I started walking thinking only of you
Up the hill and down the road
Past the people that I barely know
Round the bend to the run-off wash
I found a feather that a quail had lost

Where are you going now my friend
Where are you going now
Are you going to see them on the mountain now
Going to see them trees
Going to watch the circles take a bow
Going to help agree
To be
Today

Some people like to play out loud
I like them always, they're a laughing crowd
To catch the wind then come sliding down
You reach the bottom falling upside down

Touch a hand and see the world turning circles
Brushing every curl back again
To those sunset walks
That special summer and those all night talks
