Very Early (Live December 1971) Lyrics

Early morning... first light dawning
Time to just lay 'round
Dreamy traces... sleepy faces
Time to just lay a-round
[Through the window] daylight stealing... cozy feeling
Where is there to go?
Darkness waning... conscious gaining
Time's a-wasting, I know
When I try to leave my hideout
Fingers start to ride out
Tug me back like a string
Covers hide me... love beside me
Very early
Restful slumber... that's my number
Think I'll just lay 'round
Dozing/waking... sleep's not taking
Why should I stick a-round?

[In our nest I'm] stretching, yawning... stirring, spawning
What is there to do?
Shadowed ceiling... lovin' feeling
Love, so shiny and new
Pretty silhouette begins to...
Clutch her downy pillow
How my heart wants to sing [fa-la-la]
Love awakens here beside me
Very early, oh so early, early mornin' thing
