Gary Brooker Mr. Blue Day Lyrics

(Brooker / Sutherland) 

Every Morning - sunrise dawning 
Shadows lifting - night clouds drifting 
Rolling away 
Open your eyes from dreaming 
Look to the sky - the sun is streaming down. 
Lightning up the world to greet us like a friend 
Lending a guiding hand until the twilight ends 
- No don't give us up Mr. Blue Day 
- Shine out just enough through the cold grey 
To lead us home again. 

Every morning sundown 
Shades of darkness draw round 
Day is slowly dying 
Night birds homeward flying on their way 
- Can't stop the night from falling 
- Can't stop the shadows calling to us all 
From another world of timeless mystery 
Out floating helpless on some far and lonely sea 
- So don't give us up Mr. Blue Day 
- Shine out just enough through the cold grey 
To lead us home again.
