"Seattle in The Sunrise Light"
[Short Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Atop Magnolia Bluff at sunrise
The city wakes in a morning haze
While Rainier sleeps beneath its glaciers
Through stunning, purple-tinted days
The Sound reflects the Space Needle's lights
Like dancing ripples in a dream
While ferries cross the silver waves
The city wakes to coffee shop steam
[Chorus]
Seattle in the sunrise light
Between the mountains and Salish Sea
Where coffee steam and mountain streams
Flow wild and flow free
While evergreens and city scenes
Paint stories in the rain
Of beauty caught between two worlds
I can’t wait to get off the train
[Verse 2]
Kerry Park at the golden hour
Olympic peaks ablaze
While sailboats drift on Elliott Bay
Through sunset's copper haze
The city lights begin to shine
Like stars fallen to earth
As evening paints the Sound in gold
And gives the night its birth
[Verse 3]
Down Pike Place way where vendors call
And fish fly through the air
While flower stalls paint rainbow walls
And buskers play their fares
Past Starbucks shops where stories brew
In cups of liquid art
Through narrow streets where history meets
The city's beating heart
[Verse 4]
Pioneer Square under an afternoon shower
With tales of days gone by
While seabirds wheel round Smith Tower
In the slate-gray autumn sky
Through neighborhoods where gardens bloom
On hillsides stepping down
To Alki Beach where lovers swoon
Past an emerald crown
[Chorus]
Seattle in the sunrise light
Between the mountains and Salish Sea
Where coffee steam and mountain streams
Flow wild and flow free
While evergreens and city scenes
Paint stories in the rain
Of beauty caught between two worlds
I can’t wait to get off the train
