Cathy Serrano: My Music

The Dawn

(Cathy Serrano)

I changed the words to this song a little on the final recording.

I laugh just to ease the heartache
I smile just to stop the tears
I wish I could find you in the moonlight
I wish I could find you’re here

There’s an owl in the forest and he’s calling
I hear the echoes in my head
It’s a long time before the dawn breaks
And I lie awake in bed

And I cry just to ease the heartache
I smile just to stop the tears
I wish I could see you in the moonlight
I wish I could find somewhere near;

Sometimes I think I hear your voice
Then I remember you’re gone
I know you left to take the good job
And I know you left me here alone

And I cry just to ease the heartache
I smile just to stop the tears
I wish I could find you in the moonlight;
I wish I could find you’re here

[instr]

There’s a train over the horizon, whistle whining
I hear the rumble in the dawn
I smell the rain from the night before
And I wish I was already gone

And I cry just to ease the heartache
I smile just to stop the tears
I know you left to find the good job;
God, it seems like years;


And I cry just to ease the heartache
I smile just to stop the tears
I wish I could find you in the moonlight
I wish I could find you’re here
