terry scott taylor - the afternoon lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
how she loved the dawn’s golden colors
dressed on the tree-arched vestibule
alone, she’d go out dancing
‘cross the quilt of morning dew
had a soul for rising early
and a heart for leaving soon
oh, how she loved the morning
so god took her in the afternoon

[verse 2]
her prayers spilled over earth and water
kissed the snow fields and climbed the hills
cracked the mountains of virginia
touched the hem of jesus’ will
yes, sweet daybreak was a lover
but he could not heal her wound
oh, how she loved the morning
so god took her in the afternoon

[bridge]
today the wind’s a little colder
the sun drifts ‘cross a pallid sky
and the land is full of shadows
cast by dark clouds p-ssing by

[verse 3]
in my dreams, i see her laughing
in the mist, she’s still at play
so each morning, i go looking
for the child who could not stay
now she fills the fallow green fields
with a memory-laced perfume
oh, how she loved the morning
so god took her in the afternoon
oh, how she loved the morning
so god took her in the afternoon
