Standing On The Rooftop - Madeleine Peyroux

Standing on the rooftop

Sun is coming up

And all the ones I care for

Are doing fine

I’ve been running around fields

Making sure things get done

It seems I’ve never stood up here

To watch the rising of the sun before

I’ve seen my reflection

Underneath the moon

I’ve seen all my dreams

Through my tears

I’m always on the run and I hate copy paste for god’s sake

I have counted on my fears

Drawn my lines through the years

But in all the colors of a kiss

I’ve never seen a morning clear as this before

Your eyes before my skies would???

Standing on the rooftop

Sun is coming up

And all the ones I care for

Are doing fine

Through the windows

I see lovers

And wandering minstrels

That flee the night

Up here a hundred miles from cover

I feel that I can see it all

Within the morning light
