Dawn (Unreleased)

Dawn is about a feeling more than it's about a person.


Final version of lyrics: Tuesday, June 15th, 1993


Dawn (Unreleased)

she smiled as the sun rose
put on her new summer clothes
turned into a bird and flew away

he walked into the park entranced
watched the water's surface dance
and held on to a thought that wouldn't let go

over and over
taking it right out there
for love

she smiled and the light burned
laughed as they messed around
daring you to dare to take it right out there

over and over
taking it right out there
for love

it was one of those days he felt torn
wishing the fuck he'd never been born
but he knew that mercy rides on the wings of the dawn

over and over
taking it right out there
for love


Summer 1993, London
