The Dawn Chorus On Tape Lyrics


Richard Walters The Dawn Chorus On Tape




He wakes before the sun comes up
Leaves the sleeping house to collect more sound
He stands in reverence under towering trees
Tall as houses

Did you ever imagine
A world without seeing it
As the night came in he was listening
To a universe magnetized
He heard everything

It came with a fading light
Bringing familiar rooms into shadow now
He tapes every morning all the risen sounds
With this wow and flutter

Did you ever imagine
A world without seeing it
As the night came in he was listening
To a universe magnetized
He heard everything
As the dark came down he was listening
To a thousand dawns caught before
He heard everything
