Morning - Lucy Schwartz

Sing, silent sparrow of the morning

Drown, out the weeping sound of morning

Morning comes

In waves of sorrow

Somber as the day that follows

Still morning comes

Wake, though the heavy feeling lingers

Catch, and release it in your fingers

Then let go

Morning comes

In waves of sorrow

Somber as the day that follows

Still morning comes

And I’ll never forget you dear

When the sun appears

You’ll be my light

And though it wasn’t said my dear

Every moment here

You’ll be my life

Morning comes

In waves of sorrow

Somber as the day that follows

Still morning comes

So sing, silent sparrow of the morning
