Kray Van Kirk - Chase The Morning Lyrics
I've never seen a ship so fineAs that I sail todayThe sheets the colors of the dawnLined up in grand paradeAnd as I leave my mother's arms, and all that I have knownThe singing voices gently call me homeSo rig me up my sails of airAnd canvases of cloudAnd let me sail upon the seaIn a winding sheet and shroudAnd here at last, I'm bound awayI'll see you in a whileFor I must chase the morning, across the emerald isleAnd when we land upon the shoreWhere the grass is shining greenThe snow lies on the mountainsidesThe waters run betweenI'll see them there, from years gone by, and endless summer's dayAnd by the waters we will gently waitSo rig me up my sails of airAnd canvases of cloudAnd let me sail upon the seaIn a winding sheet and shroudAnd here at last, I'm bound awayI'll see you in a whileFor I must chase the morning, across the emerald isleAnd when your night time softly fallsI'll sail to you once moreAnd leave my touch upon your cheekAnd my footprints by the doorAnd when you wake and see the rainbow, shining in the skyMy voice will be upon the wind, and in the lion's crySo rig me up my sails of airAnd canvases of cloudAnd let me sail upon the seaIn a winding sheet and shroudAnd here at last, I'm bound awayI'll see you in a whileFor I must chase the morning, across the emerald isle
