Very Early, Pt. 1 - Bill Evans Trio

Early morning… first light dawning

Time to just lay 'round

Dreamy traces… sleepy faces

Time to just lay a-round

daylight stealing… cozy feeling

Where is there to go?

Darkness waning… conscious gaining

Time’s a-wasting, I know

When I try to leave my hideout

Fingers start to ride out

Tug me back like a string

Covers hide me… love beside me

Very early

Restful slumber… that’s my number

Think I’ll just lay 'round

Dozing/waking… sleep’s not taking

Why should I stick a-round?

stretching, yawning… stirring, spawning

What is there to do?

Shadowed ceiling… lovin' feeling

Love, so shiny and new

Pretty silhouette begins to…

Clutch her downy pillow

How my heart wants to sing

Love awakens here beside me

Very early, oh so early, early mornin' thing
