Purple sunrise
Telling me it's time to go home
The mighty lion
Is sitting on the horizon
The graveyard shift
Is clocking off for the day
Purple sunrise
Won't you carry my blues away
It's Wednesday morning
And the warrior has tripped on his blade
In comes the messenger
Flying in on the wind and the haze
Tell me something
That a poor boy longs to hear
Purple sunrise
I have no one for to call my dear
Many years have passed by
I have fought the urge to cry
It seems my life was born from
Misery and pain
Every evening I wake up
Worn out back and storied luck
I fear that I may never love again
Purple sunrise
Marks the end of the day
Morning songbirds
Won't you sing my blues away
Many years have passed by
I have fought the urge to cry
It seems my life was born from
Misery and pain
Every evening I wake up
Worn out back and storied luck
I fear that I may never love again
Purple sunrise
Marks the end of the day
Hello morning
Won't you take me home today
