Music Monday: If you're seeing this...
I'm writing this early this time. It's Friday, 23 January, and we are staring down a winter storm that will almost certainly bring ice and mean that by this time actually on Monday I won't have power or heat. So I do what anyone else would do...I turn to Dolly Parton, who just celebrated her birthday recently. This special version of one of her songs from 1977 makes my heart happy because of the amazing artists joining her--but let's be honest, she does that all on her own. Enjoy...and if you're looking at this on a phone screen huddled up under a blanket, I see you. I won't share my blanket with you, but I see you. 😃
Light of a Clear Blue Morning by Dolly Parton
It's been a long dark night And I've been a waitin' for the morning It's been a long hard fight But I see a brand new day a dawning I've been looking for the sunshine You know I ain't seen it in so long But everything's gonna work out just fine And everything's gonna be all right That's been all wrong
'Cause I can see the light of a clear blue morning I can see the light of a brand new day I can see the light of a clear blue morning Oh, and everything's gonna be all right It's gonna be okay
It's been a long long time Since I've known the taste of freedom And those clinging vines That had me bound, well I don't need 'em Oh, I've been like a captured eagle, you know an eagle's born to fly Now that I have won my freedom, like an eagle I am eager for the sky
And I can see the light of a clear blue morning I can see the light of brand new day I can see the light of a clear blue morning Oh, and everything's gonna be all right It's gonna be okay
I can see the light of a clear blue morning I can see the light of brand new day I can see the light of a clear blue morning Ooh, everything's gonna be all right Everything's gonna be all right Everything's gonna be all right It's gonna be okay
And I can see the light of a clear blue morning I can see the light of a brand new day I can see the light of a clear blue morning Ooh and everything's gonna be all right Everything's gonna be all right Everything's gonna be all right It's gonna be okay
I can see the light of a clear blue morning I can see the light of brand new day I can see the light of a clear blue morning Everything's gonna be all right Everything's gonna be all right Everything's gonna be all right It's gonna be okay
