joni mitchell - chelsea morning (2021 remaster) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
woke up, it was a chelsea morning
and the first thing that i heard
was a song outside my window
and the traffic wrote the words
it came ringing up like christmas bells
and rapping up like pipes and drums

[chorus]
oh, won’t you stay
we’ll put on the day
and we’ll wear it till the night comes

[verse 2]
woke up, it was a chelsea morning
and the first thing that i saw
was the sun through yellow curtains
and a rainbow on the wall
blue, red, green and gold to welcome you
crimson crystal beads to beckon

[chorus]
oh, won’t you stay
we’ll put on the day
there’s a sun show every second
[bridge]
now the curtain opens
on a portait of today
and thе streets are paved with passersby
and pigеons fly
and papers lie
waiting to blow away

[verse 3]
woke up, it was a chelsea morning
and the first thing that i knew
there was milk and toast and honey
and a bowl of oranges, too
and the sun poured in like b_tterscotch
and stuck to all my senses

[chorus]
oh, won’t you stay
we’ll put on the day
and we’ll talk in present tenses

[outro]
when the curtain closes
and the rainbow runs away
i will bring you incense owls by night
by candlelight
by jewel_light
if only you will stay
pretty baby, won’t you
wake up, it’s a chelsea morning

- joni mitchell
