Genesis - Hidden In The World Of Dawn lyrics

Pastel colours bring the sky to life Cleanse the night with a breath of dawn Silence broken when a baby cries Piercing the mist that cloaks the cool outside The streets are beginning to move gently now Daylight lays on the ground Dew drops trickle down leaves gently now Soaking the pathway of the thousands of the thousands of shoes Windows opening as the postman calls Letters to smell, letters to burn Daily papers through the hole in the door Sex and news fill the wisdom of a million minds Time is a measure of strength quickly now Speed is the cause of decay Traffic is humble to pull on your knees Pushing and pulling the tired little men in their cars Wake up! Your conscious is calling! Reality begins at nine Wake up! Think what you’re missing Hidden in the world of dawn Rest your body with soothing sleep Dream of the hours you left behind Listen carefully for the break of day The twilight’s near, silence brings the fantasy here Silhouettes mingle with sky backed with smog Ripples of morning flow by The quietness flavours the glow – breathe it in Merging the bliss that is glazing the warm face of gloom Wake up! Your conscious is calling! Reality begins at nine Wake up! Think what you’re missing Hidden in the world of dawn
