Lyrics Rorem : "Early in the morning" - Ned Rorem , Susan Graham
Early
in
the
morning
Of
a
lovely
summer
day,
As
they
lowered
the
bright
awning
At
the
outdoor
café,
I
was
breakfasting
on
croissants
And
café
au
lait
Under
greenery
like
scenery,
Rue
François
Premier.
They
were
hosing
the
hot
pavement
With
a
dash
of
flashing
spray
And
a
smell
of
summer
showers
When
the
dust
is
drenched
away,
Under
greenery
like
scenery,
Rue
François
Premier.
I
was
twenty
and
a
lover
And
in
Paradise
to
stay,
Very
early
in
the
morning
Of
a
lovely
summer
day.
