LYRICS
Give Me Birds at the Dawning
by Betsy Binstock
Give me birds at the dawning
birds at the dawning,
birds at the dawning
to sing my soul awake
Roses at Sunrise
Breezes at Midday
Rainbows at Teatime
Give me flames in the sunset
Give me candles at twilight
Give me love in the evening
Give me moon in the nighttime
