Sangtekst: Joni Mitchell. Hits. Chelsea Morning.
Woke up, it was a Chelsea Morning
And the first thing that I heard
Was a song outside my window
And the traffic wrote the words
It came a reelin' up
Like Christmas bells
And rappin' up
Like pipes and drums
Oh, won?t you stay
We?ll put on the day
And we?ll wear it
?Til the night comes
Woke up, it was a Chelsea Morning
And the first thing that I saw
Was the sun through yellow curtains
And a rainbow on the wall
Blue, red, green
And gold to welcome you
Crimson crystal beads
To beckon
Oh, won?t you stay
We?ll put on the day
There?s a sun show
Every second
Now the curtain opens
On a portrait of today
And the streets
Are paved with passersby
And pigeons fly
And papers lie
Waitin' to blow away
Woke up, it was a Chelsea Morning
And the first thing that I knew
There was milk and toast and honey
And a bowl of oranges too
And the sun poured
In like butterscotch
And stuck
To all my senses
Oh, won?t you stay
We?ll put on the day
And we?ll talk
In present tenses
When the curtain closes
And the rainbow runs away
I will bring you incense owls by night
By candlelight
By jewel-light
If only you will stay
Pretty baby, won?t you
Wake up, it?s a Chelsea Morning
And the first thing that I heard
Was a song outside my window
And the traffic wrote the words
It came a reelin' up
Like Christmas bells
And rappin' up
Like pipes and drums
Oh, won?t you stay
We?ll put on the day
And we?ll wear it
?Til the night comes
Woke up, it was a Chelsea Morning
And the first thing that I saw
Was the sun through yellow curtains
And a rainbow on the wall
Blue, red, green
And gold to welcome you
Crimson crystal beads
To beckon
Oh, won?t you stay
We?ll put on the day
There?s a sun show
Every second
Now the curtain opens
On a portrait of today
And the streets
Are paved with passersby
And pigeons fly
And papers lie
Waitin' to blow away
Woke up, it was a Chelsea Morning
And the first thing that I knew
There was milk and toast and honey
And a bowl of oranges too
And the sun poured
In like butterscotch
And stuck
To all my senses
Oh, won?t you stay
We?ll put on the day
And we?ll talk
In present tenses
When the curtain closes
And the rainbow runs away
I will bring you incense owls by night
By candlelight
By jewel-light
If only you will stay
Pretty baby, won?t you
Wake up, it?s a Chelsea Morning
