Early Morning Grey

I'm driving through the open roads of hometown
The Junipers are swaying again
It's barely five o'clock and sunlight's on the loch
And nothing's wrong, no, nothing's wrong
I've been working day and night for this moment
Since I shed those leaves of doubt
It's here I want to stay, in the early morning grey
And I can't change, no, I can't change
No more running at the moon in all her splendor
Her faces haunted me
I'm staying where the days will seem much longer
In the early morning grey
There's something in this season, so golden
Something in the lay of this land
If only you and me were the child I can see
We'd be all right
I'm standing on the fringe of the ocean
The century is closing at last
It's here I want to stay, in the early morning grey
And I can't change, no, I can't change
No more running at the moon in all her splendor
Her faces haunted me
I'm staying where the days will seem much longer
In the early morning grey
