Judy Collins - Chelsea Morning lyrics

Your rating:

[Verse 1]
I woke up, it was a Chelsea morning and the first thing that I heard
was a song outside my window, the traffic wrote the words.
It came ringing up like   Christmas bells,
  rapping up like pipes and drums.
 
Oh, won't you stay, we'll put on the day
and we'll wear it 'till the night comes.
 
 
[Verse 2]
I woke up, it was a Chelsea morning and the   first thing that I saw
       
was the sun through yellow curtains and a rainbow on my wall.
Blue, red, green and gold to welcome you,
  Crimson crystal beads to beckon.
 
[Chorus 2]
Oh, won't you stay, we'll put on the day,
there's a sun show   every second.
 
 
[Bridge]
  Now, the curtain opens on a portrait of today
and the streets are paved with passersby,   pigeons fly
and papers lie, waiting to blow away.
     |
 
[Verse 3]
I woke up, it was a Chelsea morning   and the first thing that I knew:
there was milk and toast and honey and a bowl of orange juice too.
And the light poured in like butterscotch
  stuck to all my senses.
 
[Chorus 3]
Oh, won't you stay we'll put on the day
and we'll talk in present tenses.
 
 
[Ending]
When the contain closes and the rainbow runs away
I will bring you incense owls by night   by jewel light, by candlelight,
  if only you will stay.
Oh, my darling won't you wake up, it is a Chelsea morning.
