Seattle Sunrise

© 2013 Mark Cote

she'd take Seattle if she could
that life she understood
than the life of a simple man
the life of who I am

it's not the world that she had chose
but fated winds had blown
like a gypsy soul
with nowhere else to go

(chorus)  one day
                  here's my wish for you
                  I hope your dream comes true
                  and you find your way home
                  I know
                  you feel so all alone
                 don't let it turn your heart to stone
                  and your skies will turn to blue
                  in a Seattle sunrise

she'd take Seattle anytime
so much more there she could find
not the quiet world I know
not the nowhere here to go

lost now in a distant maze
so few choices so many ways
hold keys to an unlocked cage
through all the rainy days

(chorus)

blinded eyes must see again
can a willow branch still bend
is honesty just pretend
and will it ever end

(chorus)
