So Much Can Be Observed

In the morning of a summer day you hear the crows first
There's a counting in the spruce tree, must be coffee is served
A few new parents sing their cheer, giddy from the night watch
In the early morning so much can be observed

There's a warbler, a nuthatch, a phoebe, a crow
A goldfinch, a robin, a red-eyed vireo
There's a blue jay, a redstart, and a cat bird putting on a show

The very best music is sung just before the sunrise
Stretching and calling and singing to shake off the dew
One morning an owl was perched up upon the porch roof
It swooped silently just over my head and then off she flew

There's a warbler, a nuthatch, a phoebe, a crow
A goldfinch, a robin, a red-eyed vireo
There's a blue jay, a redstart, and a cat bird putting on a show

Feel the strength of a summer morn
Breathe the sweet fragrance as life is reborn

In the morning of a summer day you hear the crows first
There's a counting in the spruce tree, must be coffee is served
A few new parents sing their cheer, giddy from the night watch
In the early morning so much can be observed

There's a warbler, a nuthatch, a phoebe, a crow
A goldfinch, a robin, a red-eyed vireo
In the early morning so much can be observed
