Love of mine, what gift of mine
Shall I give to you this dawn?
A morning song?
But mornings don’t last so long

The sun will rise behind those eyes
And brighten a darkened day
But like a rose
This song will fade away

Fleeting as it is, here we’ll stay

On and on, we’ll sing a morning song
A gift, a tune, never staying long

Friend of mine the bells do chime
To mark a brand new day
A melody to get you on your way

A gift like this is so easily missed
No name to its tune
Shining bright and leaving us too soon

Turning days to gold and months to June

On and on, we’ll sing a morning song
A gift, a tune, never staying long
