Violets Of Dawn
(Eric Anderson)
take me thru the night I’m tipping
topsy-turvy turning upside down
hold me tight and whisper what you wish
for there is no one here around
you may sing-song me sweet smiles
regardless of the city’s careless frown
come watch the no-colors fade blazing
into petal sprays
the violets of dawn
prince charming I will be on two white steeds
to bring you dappled diamond’s crown
and climb your tower sleeping beauty
before you ever know I’ve left the ground
you may wear a cinderella snow white
alice wonderland fair gown
come watch the no colors fade blazing
into petal sprays
the violets of dawn
I don’t mean to wake you up
it’s only loneliness that’s coming round
come watch the no colors fade blazing
into petal sprays
the violets of dawn
Violets Of Dawn
About This Song:
Mary and I always loved singing this Eric Anderson song – the images are so poetic. It was one of the first songs we worked out harmony for.
