Before The Morning by Lori Yamamoto

Verse 1 Quiet hours before Light begins to touch the window I lie awake here Listening to city's low hum sound My heart is doing something new today Verse 2 Sunrise creeps across The window blinds in gentle lines I watch dust moving In its tired dance through morning air World outside becomes a blur to me Chorus Before morning comes I find myself with thoughts of you In quiet dark hours I hope you think of me as well Maybe we meet inside our dreams tonight Verse 3 Moon has traded watch Giving its place to rising sun Our secrets are safe Like battle we have finally won Just comfortable silence between us Verse 4 In gentle slow time I am watching how sunlight moves Through your coffee cup More than just feeling in my chest My future tied a little bit to you Chorus Before morning comes I find myself with thoughts of you In quiet dark hours I hope you think of me as well Maybe we meet inside our dreams tonight Verse 5 City is waking We hear its low hum through the walls Night has become now A memory written on my heart Simple story of letting you in close Verse 6 Like paper folding To make origami bird fly Careful and slow work Of opening my heart to someone Little mark you see upon my soul Chorus Before morning starts This tiny tired thought grows bigger Hope you feel it too In quiet hours before the light begins Two people falling at the same time
