Some Morning - Sergio Mendes

Morning

Gently I’m awakened

If I’m not mistaken

Spring is on the way

First Flight

A picture perfect sunlight

No ordinary morning

Must be my lucky day

In the quiet

I hear a stirring

I am not alone

I’m following the sound

A foot above the ground

Down the hallway

You are standing

Looking quite at home

Like you were never gone

Oh, morning

Gently I’m awakened

If I’m not mistaken

Spring is on the way

First Flight

A picture perfect sunlight

No ordinary morning

Must be my lucky day

At the table

There are children

Look how tall they’ve grown

Imagine my surprise

No sadness in their eyes

I grab the paper

Read the headline

It reads «Peace on Earth»

The same recurring dream

One morning

I will see that morning

And I won’t be dreaming

Come some morning soon
