Early in the morning
I'll come calling
I'll come calling after you
Darling if you answer
Oh we'll wander
Down the garden where it's cool
Later we'd discover
All in covers
Children silent as the stars
Early in the morning
In the morning
Everything at once is ours

Early in the morning
I'll come calling
I'll come calling after you
Though you seldom answer
Still I wonder
What will pass here when you do
Delicate in grasses
Bright and ashen
Breathing sweet a ruby nest
Early in the morning
In the morning, withered
Singing we will rest

Early in the morning
In the morning
I will call for you
Even if the words aren't clear,
And even if my voice seems cruel
Early in the morning
In the morning
Red and almost true

Dressing in my finest suit
My cleanest shoes
Making sure the crease is true
Pressed and fresh and blue.
