Showcasing the multiple talents of master Billy Playle...a wonderful result.

Lady Dawn (131bpm) (3:08) (c) A Gupta 20O4, 2020
Intro:
00:07 Verse1: (acoustic guitar only)
Just as the dawn breaks in the sky
You will find her on the shore
Walking barefoot with the wind in her hair
She breathes in the virginal air
00:31 Verse2: (with drums and bass)
She has to answer a call she only hears
Echoes in deep inside her
She wades out the breakers as she takes a ride
On her boat to the blue unknown
00:54 Chorus:
Dear lady what is your name
Are you tied to a fixed address
01:04
To get rid of your shackles and chains
Do you wish you could wander so free
01:18 Solo:
01:40 Verse3:
Picks up a seashell holds it to her ear
Listen it whispers a tale
The ocean song and of spirits riding free
She finds serenity and strength
02:05 Verse4
Is there a someone who understands
She is crying to be free
Willing to surrender if they only knew
To read her mind and her heart
02:27 Chorus:
Dear lady what have you learnt
Has life been a hard road for you
02:38 If you live life (all) over again
How would you reap what you sowed.
02:51 Outro:
Dear Lady Dawn….

Wow! How pretty is this? :) Gorgeous instrumentation. Billy, your vocals are so good here. Very nice lyric, Andy. Have you been tapping your inner Bard?  ;)

A real pleasure to listen to.  :)

Thank you Ladies!

Billy did sing this with his usual flair :).

Donna, I am glad you like the lyric.  I don't think I could write lyrics are earnestly as I used a few years ago, it's too much of a slog for me. I threw together a few clever sounding lines and phrases - I thought the line "are you tied to a fixed address" was alright :)
