lyrics

I step outside my cosy little kingdom
Skip down the stairs to meet the Melbourne grey haze
And the clouds are hanging low beneath the morning
With the threat of one more lost and forgettable day
And the students move like drunks along the footpath
Hypnotised or mindless, dragging sleepy feet behind
Oh, our little ones, so obliviously blissful
The worlds young soldiers falling into line

But who am I to look upon this morning
With judgement or concern, who am I?
Have I come to offer love,
Or am I the bringer of some kind of warning
Or am I simply mourning some other morning gone by

A songbird floats a tune across the daybreak
A lovers song that could drag tears from any eye
That like a snow flake in the air,
Dissolves in to the noisy highway
Just another tired voice sending its song of love
Into a world that won’t reply
The old man sweeps the dead leaves down the driveway
From a tree he planted so many years ago
And as the double storey town houses keep rising up around him
So many brand new neighbours,
Still he wonders why nobody says hello

Still who am I to look upon this morning
With frustration or despair, who am I
Am I that songbird from above
Sending words of love into the new day dawning
Or am I simply mourning some other morning gone by.
