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 It's a 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 It's a 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 With no love With no love It's a 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 --- Misty Morning Rain - Ray LaMontagne
