Chelsea Morning

                                  Woke up, it was a Chelsea mornin'

And the first thing that I heard 

Was the song outside my window

And the traffic wrote the words 

It came ringin' up like Christmas bells

And rappin' up like pipes... and drums...



Won't you stay 

We'll put on the day 

And we'll wear it 'til the night comes 



Woke up, it was a Chelsea mornin'

And the first thing that I saw 

Was the sun through yellow curtains

And a rainbow on my wall 

Red, green and gold to welcome you

And crimson crystal beads... to beckon... 



Won't you stay 

We'll put on the day 

There's a sun shower every second 



Woke up, it was a Chelsea mornin'

And the first thing that I knew 

There was milk and toast and honey 

And a bowl of oranges too 

And the light poured in like butterscotch 

And stuck to all my senses...



Won't you stay 

We'll put on the day 

And we'll talk in present tenses
