Fairport Convention - Dawn lyrics

Morning shone among the shadows

Sunlight bled upon the silence

From the blackest night must come the morning sky

But yesterday was such a long time

Yesterday may last forever

From the barren land yesterday might always rise

Sleep, will we ever sleep?

Oh, to sleep in peace once again my love

Tears are falling in the darkness

Hearts are bleeding in the silence

From the widest ocean who would miss this smallest tear

Then might always be a bad time

Then might always last forever

But these stormy clouds we may see them all disappear

Hope, has she really gone?

Will she ever come back again, my love?

Sleep, will we ever sleep?

Oh, to sleep in peace once again to love

Hope, has she really gone?

Will she ever come home again, my love?
