Chelsea Morning

[Verse 1] Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning And the first thing that I heard Was a song outside my window And the traffic wrote the words It came ringing up like Christmas bells And rapping up like pipes and drums [Chorus] Oh, won't you stay We'll put on the day And we'll wear it till the night comes [Verse 2] Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning And the first thing that I saw Was the sun through yellow curtains And a rainbow on the wall Blue, red, green and gold to welcome you Crimson crystal beads to beckon [Chorus] Oh, won't you stay We'll put on the day There's a sun show every second [Bridge] Now the curtain opens On a portrait of today And the streets are paved with passersby And pigeons fly And papers lie Waiting to blow away [Verse 3] Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning And the first thing that I knew There was milk and toast and honey And a bowl of oranges, too And the sun poured in like butterscotch And stuck to all my senses [Chorus] Oh, won't you stay We'll put on the day And we'll talk in present tenses [Outro] When the curtain closes And the rainbow runs away I will bring you incense owls by night By candlelight By jewel-light If only you will stay Pretty baby, won't you Wake up, it's a Chelsea morning
