Em C G C
When the morning of your eyes comes waking through my shadows
Em C D7 G
Leaving just a trace of twilight sleep,
Em C G C
I whisper to the baby raindrops playing on my window,
Em C G D7 G
And tell them gently this is not the time that they should weep.
CHORUS:
D7 G
For somewhere in my mind there is a painting box,
D7 G
I have every color there it's true.
D7 G
Just lately when I look inside my painting box,
D7 G
I seem to pick the colors of you.
Em C G C
My Friday evening's foot-steps plodding dully through this black town,
Em C D7 G
Are far away now from the world that I'm in.
Em C G C
My eyes are listening to some sounds that I think just might be springtime,
Em C G D7 G
With daffo-dils between my toes I'm laughing at their whim,
CHORUS
Em C G C
The purple sail above me catches all the strength of summer.
Em C D7 G
Fishes stop and ask me where I am bound.
Em C G C
I smile and shake my head and say my little ship is sinking,
Em C G D7 G
But I kind of like the sea that I'm on, and I don't mind if I do drown.
CHORUS
