Someday Morning

As the early morning filters through

My shuttered window pane

I look about and realize

That things are still the same



These flowers in a glass

Mark the hours that have passed

As i lay sleeping



And i can hear my footsteps ringing

Down the empty morning street

And the concrete that i walk upon

Is cold beneath my feet



A single winging dove

Reminds me of the sleeping love

That i am leaving



'cause everyone must someday do his own thing

'cause everyone must someday do his own thing

And i have a brand new song to sing



In the morning skies the stars

Begin to sputter and to fade

As the night surrenders all its claim

On shadows it has made



A watchdog's hungry bark

Is the morning's first remark

Upon my walking



And everyone must someday do his own thing

And everyone must someday do his own thing

And i have a brand new song to sing



And i'm told that if i try

That i can do most anything

Well then i would like to sing a song

And make this morning ring



As the morning turns to day

Hear the waking city say

Who is that singing
