Don Black - Morning Sun lyrics

[Verse 1] How do you rate the morning sun? After a long and sleepless night How many stars would you give to the moon? Do you see those stars from where you are? Shine on the lost and loneliest The ones who can't get over it [Chorus 1] And you always wanted more than life But now you don't have the appetite In a message to the troubadour The world don't love you anymore Tell me how do you rate the morning sun [Verse 2] Stuck inside the rainbow years And you could happen to me ‘Cause I've been close to where you are I drove to places you have seen It all seems so familiar Like they'd been sent to k** ya [Chorus 2] It doesn't take an astronaut To float into space is just a thought The morning brings a mystery The evening makes it history Tell me how do you rate the morning sun [Brdige] And the village drunk Sadly pa**ed away It was a shame I never knew his name I wonder if he sat there every morning And watched the sun rise [Verse 3] How do you rate the morning sun? It was just too heavy for me And all I wanted was the world If you are the starlet in the sun Don't go wasting your time ‘Cause there is no finish line [Chorus 3] And you don't see anything Not even love, not anything The night could take the man from you A sense of wonder overdue The morning brings a mystery The evening makes it history Who am I to rate the morning sun?
