Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It was a beautiful mornin'
On a hill where the wind only carried the sound
Of the mockin'bird's song
And I was thinkin' about you
[Verse 2]
And all the flowers were dancin'
One by one, they all told me of
The time that had been and the time that will be
And I was thinkin' about you
[Verse 3]
I walked on down by the river
Saw the sails on the ships that were leavin'
For places I could only dream of
And I was thinkin' about you
[Verse 4]
The river ran to the ocean
And I walked through the market
And stared at the harbor lights through the soft rain
And I was thinkin' about you
[Verse 5]
I stood alone in the city
And the song I was singin' was a cry in the night
For the mornin' to come
And I was thinkin' about you
[Verse 6]
It was a beautiful mornin'
On a hill where the wind only carried the sound
Of the mockin'bird's song
[Verse 7]
And I was thinkin' about you
