Herons flew above me in the morning light
Giant shadows fell down on me
And misty waves sounded in my ears
They still echo in my mind
Baby, once in a while
As my eyesight fails
And all the colors range
Between tones of gray
I recall that sound
And i wish i was
In that morning light
Where the herons fly
The creek and i have aged
The herons are all gone
Grey and white, they don't fly here
But as i stare through the rising dawn
They're still vivid in my mind
Baby once in a while
I can hardly see
Through my memories
It's like a crazy dream
I once had of dying
And i wish i was
In that morning light
In the morning light
In the morning light
I wish i was
In the morning light
As the years come tumbling down
I wonder if i'll hear the sound
Of the grey herons flight
In the morning lig¬ht
