Sloan Wainwright Cool Morning Lyrics

Coaxes coltsfoot open
By the side of the road
Leggy lilac leans
O¹er the split rail
To greet the meadow marigold

Fiery red azalea flare
Twisting wisteria
Climbs the garden wall
Perfect hearts that bleed
Trembling on their stem
Purple lipstick iris uncurl

Through my open window
Taken root in the dirt
I¹m happy with what I got
And now I see
I¹ve got a lot

Violets nestle in blades of grass
Wild mustard hides
The well-worn path
Spring beauty grows with fiddlehead fern
Sturdy primrose pushes up through
Last years leaves

How can I hold these flowers in my hand
So I don¹t forget what is real once again
