Simon Marks - Wind Rose Gently Lyrics

The day it started calm enough, breeze was bright and warm
Gently doing nothing that would indicate a storm
Red gums were a shimmering in the murray's morning light
Everything was perfect in this bright morning spring light, morning spring light

Made myself a piece of toast, spread it with black gold
Brewed a pot of loose leaf tea, madura strong and bold
Radio national was bleeding out the new's
Asi sat and made my list of chores to do before noon, before noon...

Taking for granted all the morning hours
Taking for granted all of springs sweet powers
Soaking in it up like this time will never bend... till the end, and the...

Wind rose gently through the tree's
Wind rose gently and touched my knee's
Wind rose gently began to sing... look at me

Because you never quite know when your time is done
Never quite know when your race is run
Never quite know but you live and learn
Never quite know but you take your turn...

Twilight is approaching now, the whole landscapes a mess
Branches lying everywhere, tree's relieved from the stress
Line up all your lucky ducks, put them in a row
For none of us ever know which way the wind will blow... the wind will blow

Taking for granted all the morning hours
Taking for granted all of springs sweet powers
Soaking in it up like this time will never bend... till the end

Wind rose gently through the tree's
Wind rose gently and touched my knee's
Wind rose gently began to sing... look at me

Because you never quite know when your time is done
Never quite know when your race is run
Never quite know but you live and learn
Never quite know but you take your turn...
