Chelsea morning


Woke up big this 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
Oh, won't you stay, we'll put on a day and we'll wear it till the night comes
Woke up big this Chelsea morning and the first thing that I saw
Was the sun through yellow curtains
And a rainbow on my wall
Blue, red, green and gold to welcome you
Crimson, crystal peaks to beckon
Oh, won't you stay, we'll put on a day, there's a side-show every second
Now the curtain opens on a portrait of today
And the streets are paved with passers-by
And pictures fly and papers lie
Just waiting to blow away
Woke up big this Chelsea morning and the first thing that I knew
There was milk and toast and honey
And a bowl of oranges too
And the light poured in like butterscotch
And stuck to all my senses
Oh, won't you stay, we'll put on a day and we'll talk in present tenses
Now the curtain closes and the rainbow runs away
I'll bring you incense owls by night
By candle-light, by jewel-light
If only you will stay
Pretty baby, won't you
Wake up, it's the Chelsea morning

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Fairport Convention is a legendary English folk-rock band active from the late 1960s to the present day. Their self-titled debut album in 1968 did not achieve great commercial success. The breakthrough came with their third album, *Unhalfbricking* (1969), which reached number twelve on the British charts and is considered one of the best British folk-rock albums ever made. The band has been instrumental in the evolution of the genre, blending traditional folk influences with more modern rock elements. Among the most representative songs: *Meet on the Ledge*, *Si Tu Doves*, *The Cobweb Song*.
