Morning Sounds - Lyrics - Gathering Field

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
