The Waking Hour Songtext
von David Francey

I wake to the radio morning news
Just as the day is dawning
And I watch from the window while a passing cloud
Dulls the hopeful morning
And I wonder will the girl I love
Come back with the morning
But the omen crow at the waking hour
Has given me fair warning

And the heart that′s breaking
Never makes a sound


She was once my heart's delight
My need and my desire
She was my day, she was my night
My water and my fire
And I was once the same to her
When we still walked together
But the heavy heart at the waking hour′s
Expecting heavy weather

And the heart that's breaking
Never makes a sound

I know love
I've seen love′s face
I understand its sorrow
For every love I′ve ever had
Has always met tomorrow
Though I am Wednesday's child of woe
I try not to be ungrateful
But I was born at midnight black
With a heart that can be hateful

And the heart that′s breaking
Never makes a sound
And the heart that's breaking
Never makes a sound
And the heart that′s breaking
Never makes a sound
