Morning Dance (Classic)

You came in the morning
So young and fragile
All pretty and soaring
Like you were a child
So gently you smiled
You were twenty-seven
Not older, I guess
Your eyes were like heaven
No trace of a stress
Or unhappiness

You said 'Good morning, daughter
The sky is bright and clear
And I am glad we are here'
You said 'Good morning, daughter
You're safe 'cause I am near
And you've got nothing to fear'

Sunbeams fell
From high above
Birds flew around
When you danced in the light
You smiled tenderly and said
You never died
Fresh wind blew
The sea was blue
And calm as you
Laughed and danced in the light
Then gently you smiled and said
You never died

How come I think
You're no more among
The living? Sure you are
How come I think
You are gone and
We're no more to meet?

The rose's sweet odor
Melted with the breeze
It's taking me over
It brings me contentment and peace
We talk of the future
Enjoying the now
Our feelings are mutual
And I'm cured somehow
From every flaw

I said 'Good morning, mother
So glad to see you, dear
Don't vanish, don't disappear'
I said 'Good morning, mother
You're safe 'cause I am near
And you've got nothing to fear'

Sunbeams fell
From high above
Birds flew around
When you danced in the light
You smiled tenderly and said
You never died
Fresh wind blew
The sea was blue
And calm as you
Laughed and danced in the light
Then gently you smiled and said
You never died

You're so beautiful and young
Dancing in the sun
And the sweetest day had just begun
There's a lot to be done

How come I think
You're no more among
The living? Sure you are
How come I think
You are gone and
We're no more to meet?

Sunbeams fell
From high above
Birds flew around
When you danced in the light
You smiled tenderly and said
You never died
Fresh wind blew
The sea was blue
And calm as you
Laughed and danced in the light
Then gently you smiled and said
You never died

You never died
