The Sun Rose Early

A song about losing someone you love and being left behind.

Lyrics

The sun rose early, climbed hot and burly,The water cooled, and cleared my mind,The sun rose early, climbed hot and burly,The water cooled, and eased my mind.On that day, the shore was pearly, early, my morning high.On that day, the waves swelled swirly, early, my morning ride.

Hello low, the sun bled early, the sun died, the evening cried.Oh hello low, the sun bled early, the sun died, into the night.

Hey, hey, hey, that lonely day, hey, that lonely day I prayed.Hey, hey, hey, that lonely day, hey, that lonely day I frayed.

The storm moved early, grew dark and surly,It hooked my love into the sea,The storm moved early, grew dark and surly,And tore my love away from me.Come what may, our life is dearly yet merely, a breath in time,Come what may, our life is dearly yet merely, a breath in time.

Hey, hey, hey, that lonely day, hey, that lonely day I prayed.Hey, hey, hey, that lonely day, hey, that lonely day I frayed.

Goodbye love, you left me early, early, upon this Earth.Goodbye love, you left me early, early, my soul is dearth.
