Sunrise Salute We see how dawn forms it's early light over the world in an instant And, before we know it the hills take on that golden glow The sound of night soon turns to a rendition of what the stars mean to disappear And, sometimes the every day sunrise can put on a breath taking show... I wake with the thought of climbing one mountain at a time Can't think of any other way to face the beautiful display So, slowly when my eyes open to what the night has just given birth to I salute the morning to your memory as soon as I wake... I never dream for anything better than what my real life holds And, in appreciation I just never look back To what's bigger then any of my dreams ever coming true Still it gives me a little something while the sunrise lasts... Sometimes I want to dive into the night for what I can make of it Then find myself holding on tightly all the way through And, to your eyes I stand honestly to what I made heaven become And, lie there for the first glimpse of light to give way to my sunrise salute... Tired eyes but happy heart for I think I just found God's gift And, for once I wished on a star not engraved with another's name So, let me salute the sunrise for allowing pleasant dreams edged in gold And, to be the only light in my world to ever kindly remain... Easy does it, there we have it, sometimes blind to the eyes Didn't know there could be so much meaning in a simple sunrise Forgive me if I sigh in a way the world never allowed me to But, Oh, how good the sunrise sure looks on you...
