At the dawn of the day
With the mist on the briar
And the rain and the wind
Fast asleep in the morn
I watch with a sigh
As you're slowly departing
For with you my heart
Far away is borne.
And will you recall
As far off you wander
That ever there wait
Should you wish to return
Open arms from the one
Who loved you so true
And a place for to rest
When you tire of the world.
For it's here I shall bide
Until you're home safely
And it's here I shall dream
In the cool misty morn
Of a dawn of a day
When I see you appearing
And my heart back to me
So gently is borne.
I could listen to Lauren sing forever. Her writing is vivid and sensitive, sweetly and painfully human--never apologizing for sharp corners and rough edges. The beauty of her spirit shines through. Summer Russell
