Before the Light Is Gone

Well I'd better get myself out

Every morning brings another song

With a melody to develop

Morning, before the light is gone

I hear on the bustling sidewalk

Better keep on with my keeping on

If I am on a bus that's piled up

Working till the light is goneStreet car rolling

And the people on

For me I was scrawling

With a head full of songsI feel like a fainting flower

Dreaming of when we were young

Trying to fill every waking hour with meaning before the light is goneThe rain kept falling

A weekend long

Me I was scrawling

With a head full of songs
