Morning in Pencil

A fictional voice approaches a day as a revisable sketch.

Bright · Original lyrics · Fictional voice · Lyrics only

Write the morning down in pencil,
Leave the corners soft and wide.
Let the first idea be simple;
Let another stand beside.

There is room to move a doorway,
There is room to shift a line.
We can find a different small way
Without calling it a sign.

By the time the light is changing,
Some old marks will still remain.
They can show us the arranging,
They need not become a chain.
