歌詞

First pale light along the wall

No hurry in the world at all

The room is blue, then slowly gold

The morning does what it is told

I open one eye, then the other

In no rush to be another

New every morning, soft and true

The mercy comes and finds me new

First light, take it slow

Nowhere that I have to go

Let the light come how it comes

Count the quiet, one by one

The sheets are warm, the floor is cool

I make my own unhurried rule

Before the day can make its claim

I say a small and grateful name

First light, take it slow

Nowhere that I have to go

Let the light come how it comes

Count the quiet, one by one

The dark was long but it is done

Here again, the patient sun

First light, take it slow

Nowhere that I have to go

Let the light come how it comes

Count the quiet, one by one

First pale light along the wall

No hurry in the world at all
