Misty Morning Rain

Standing in your doorway

Cast a shadow on the wall

I can hear a kestrel call

Sunlight laughing

Laughing through the windowpane

All is here is gone again

Misty morning, misty morning, misty morning rain

All is gone, then here, then gone, then here, then gone again

Here and gone again

Here and gone again

Child of the mountains

Swear I felt it from the first

Smiling eyes

Quenched my thirst

Heal all my ancient hurt

Every kindness that you show

Deeper than these roots will grow

Misty morning, misty morning, misty morning rain

All is gone, then here, then gone, then here, then gone again

Here and gone again

Here and gone again

Where once the wind was at my back

Now the sea's gone slack

No seabird squealing

Has all of life gone off the rails,

Torn my sails and left me drifting

Drifting

No love left to lift him up

No love

No love left to lift him

No love

Signs of the ages

Echo through the falling rain

All is here and gone again

Moonlight so right

Softening upon the shore

All that was will be no more

Misty morning, misty morning, misty morning rain

All is gone, then here, then gone, then here, then gone again

Here and gone again

Here and gone again

Here and gone again

Where once the wind was at my back

Now the seas gone slack no seabird squealing

Has all of life gone off the rails,

Torn my sails and left me drifting

Drifting

No love left to lift him up

No love

No love

Misty morning, misty morning, misty morning rain

All is gone, then here, then gone, then here, then gone again

Here and gone again

Here and gone again

Here and gone again

Here and gone again
