As the Dawn Breaks

As the dawn breaks Over roof slates Hope hung on every washing line As your heart aches Over life's fate I know we never had much time For us to give We did There's something in those deep blue eyes As the light creeps over the houses And the slates are darked by rain In this morning search for meaning I hear a songbird's melody I hear a songbird's melody And she's singing just for me As the light creeps over the houses And the slates are darked by rain In this morning search for meaning I hear a songbird's melody I hear a songbird's melody And she's singing just for me Oh, she's singing just for me A simple songbird's melody
