Listen To The Mockingbird

<br>Woke up one bright morning,<br>Woke up in the rain,<br>Woke up to the sunshine and the pain,<br><br>Stood out in the rosebuds,<br>Stood out in the dew,<br>Stood out in the clear and got a clue--<br><br>Listen to the mockingbird<br>Sing his sweet song,<br>Listen to the mockingbird<br>And know that life goes on.<br><br>Been inside a coal mine,<br>Been inside a whale,<br>Been inside a grief just like a jail...<br><br>Listen to the mockingbird<br>Sing his sweet song,<br>Listen to the mockingbird<br>And know that life goes on.<br><br>On that morning, dressed in black,<br>I began my journey back;<br>Through old cobwebs colors blew,<br>>From my footsteps shadows flew--<br><br>Through these eyes of light now<br>I begin to know<br>All good things in time will come and go--<br><br>Listen to the mockingbird<br>Sing his sweet song,<br>Listen to the mockingbird<br>And know that life goes on.
