Chelsea Morning - Joni Mitchell (琼尼·米契儿)

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 reeling up like Christmas bells and rapping up like pipes and drums

Oh won't you stay

Well put on the day

And well wear it till 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

Well 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

Waiting 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

Well put on the day

And well 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 its a Chelsea morning
