Some Morning
Ivan Lins/Brock Walsh
arr. Jay Ashby/Kim Nazarian
Morning, gently I'm awakened
If I'm not mistaken, spring is on the way
First light, a picture perfect sunrise
No ordinary morning
Must be a 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.
At the table, there are children
Look how tall they've grown
Imagine my surprise
No sadness in their eyes.
I grab the paper
See the headlines
It reads "Peace on earth"
The same recurring dream.
Morning
I can see that morning
And I won't be dreaming
Come some morning soon.
“Some Morning" was performed by soloist Kim Nazarian and the Houston Chamber Choir at their 2018-2019 season's “I Could Write a Book.”
