lyrics

Maid of the Morn

Peter Coy/Scott Maynard 2000

Maid of the Morn
Turn from my bed
Warm tangled dreams
Still dance in your head
It’s another day, ok
And now you’re on your way

Maid of the morn
Sleep filled eyes
Kiss me your kiss
I struggle to rise again

Stretch with the cat
Rise with the lark
Peer through the window
And scowl at the darkened sky
And sigh
Don’t wonder why
Don’t cry
Beautiful morning girl

{Bridge Bits}

Face morning beauty
Pillow-made hair
Places to go
And nothing to wear
Maid of the morn
Always in my heart
Come back to my bed
We’ll make a new start again

Ah, lovers dreams, are seldom what they seem
