There's a quiet time in the early dawn
|
Before the mornin' paper, before the coffee's on
|
When there ain't much movin' in the world outside
|
Oh I'd love to take a mornin' ride
|
My baby knows it's the time we share
|
She wakes me gently, brushes back her hair
|
And she moves into my arms sweet and slow
|
I can't wait to get up and go
|
Gonna take my baby on a mornin' ride
|
When the sun comes slippin' 'round the mountainside
|
'Bout an hour, maybe two
|
Ain't nothin' me and her would rather do
|
Than see the green grass glist'nin' in the mornin' dew
|
While the world's still damn spankin' new
|
Oh I know how beautiful the day will be
|
When she takes a mornin' ride with me
|
And when we get back, it will feel so right
|
To just lay back and linger in the mornin' light
|
Then she'll smile at me, thinkin' where we've been
|
Wantin' me to take her again
|
I'm gonna take my baby on a mornin' ride
|
When the sun comes slippin' 'round the mountainside
|
For an hour, maybe two
|
Ain't nothin' me and her would rather do
|
Than see the green grass glist'nin' in the mornin' dew
|
While the world's still damn spankin' new
|
Oh I know how beautiful the day will be
|
When she takes a mornin' ride with me
|
Oh I'm gonna take my baby on a mornin' ride
|
When the sun comes slippin' 'round the mountainside
|
'Bout an hour, maybe two
|
Ain't nothin' me and her would rather do
|
...and fade
|
