LOVE LETTER (Martin Simpson)

Where on earth did this come from I never thought to feel it
This is such a young man's song I was scared to reveal it.
The dawn was bright this morning and every bird was singing
And I am so alive today I would join them in my joy.

The skylark sings more scarcely now I seldom think to hear it
The hare they say may disappear, but I will not believe it
The dawn was gray this morning and the birds softly calling
I am waiting for the rain welcome tears for rain."

The night has held such fear for me I never thought to shake it
Old habits can die hard you know I might have died to break it
Soft sudden Sunday morning and all the bells ringing
To my love so far away I would wake you with my joy.

Where on earth did this come from I never thought to feel it
This is such a young man's song I was scared to reveal it.
The dawn was bright this morning and every bird was singing
And I am so alive today I would join them in my joy.

Wolfgang (who has found it here)
