Misty Morning Rain

(album: MONOVISION - 2020)

Standing in your doorway
Cast a shadow on the wall
I can hear a kestrel call

Sunlight laughing
Laughing through the windowpane
All is here is gone again

Misty morning, misty morning, misty morning rain
All is gone, then here, then gone, then here, then gone again

Here and gone again
Here and gone again

Child of the mountains
Swear I felt it from the first
Smiling eyes
Quenched my thirst

Heal all my ancient hurt
Every kindness that you show
Deeper than these roots will grow

Misty morning, misty morning, misty morning rain
All is gone, then here, then gone, then here, then gone again

Here and gone again
Here and gone again

Where once the wind was at my back
Now the sea's gone slack
No seabird squealing

Has all of life gone off the rails,
Torn my sails and left me drifting
Drifting

No love left to lift him up
No love
No love left to lift him
No love

Signs of the ages
Echo through the falling rain
All is here and gone again

Moonlight so right
Softening upon the shore
All that was will be no more

Misty morning, misty morning, misty morning rain
All is gone, then here, then gone, then here, then gone again

Here and gone again
Here and gone again
Here and gone again

Where once the wind was at my back
Now the seas gone slack no seabird squealing

Has all of life gone off the rails,
Torn my sails and left me drifting
Drifting

No love left to lift him up
No love
No love

Misty morning, misty morning, misty morning rain
All is gone, then here, then gone, then here, then gone again

Here and gone again
Here and gone again
Here and gone again
Here and gone again
