Chelsea Morning Lyrics


I woke up, it was a Chelsea morning
And the first thing that I heard
Was a song outside my window
The traffic wrote the words
It came ringing up like Christmas bells
Rapping up like pipes and drumsOh, won't you stay we'll put on the day
And we'll wear it 'till the night comesI woke up, it was a Chelsea morning
And the first thing that I saw
Was the sun through yellow curtains
And a rainbow on my wall
Blue, red, green and gold to welcome you
Crimson crystal beads to beckonOh, won't you stay we'll put on the day
There's a sun show every secondNow the curtain opens on a portrait of today
And the streets are paved with passersby
Pigeons fly, and papers lie
Waiting to blow awayI woke up, it was a Chelsea morning
And the first thing that I knew
There was milk and toast and honey

And a bowl of orange juice too
And the light poured in like butterscotch
Stuck to all my sensesOh, won't you stay we'll put on the day
And we'll talk in present tensesWhen the contain closes
And the rainbow runs away
I will bring you incense owls by night
By jewel light, by candlelight, if only you will stay
Oh my darling won't you wake up, it is a Chelsea morning

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
