Elvis Presley - We Can Make The Morning

Elvis Presley - We Can Make The Morning
(a soulful and powerful ballad)

Recorded: 1971/05/20, first released on single
(Words & Music: Jay Ramsey)

Lyrics:
I just thought I heard a small voice crying
Looked again and saw that it was me
I feel like a little boy denying
That he fears the night 'cause he can't see

Then a larger thought said stop your crying
Don't be scared to search 'cause you may find
Fate holds out a candle for your footsteps
Time rolls back the shadows of your mind

It's a long, long lonely night
You can make the morning if you try
It's a long, long lonely night
Oh, we can make the morning if we try
Girl, we can make the morning you and I
Together, together, together

Loneliness is darkness' first companion
Spend the night alone and faith may bend
Share it all and see how fear starts fading
Chase away the shadows with a friend

Dawn's elusive light is just beginning
Now the day can push away the night
Dreams can make the sun feel much brighter
Hope creates a foothold for the light

It's a long, long lonely night
We can make the morning if we try
It's a long, long lonely night
We can make the morning if we try
Girl, we can make the morning you and I, Oh
Together

It's a long, long lonely night
We can make the morning if we try
It's a long, long lonely night
We can make the morning if we try
It's a long, long lonely night
We can make the morning if we try

so glad this song has reached over a million hits-- i said a few months ago for you all to tell your friends about this song to get up to the million mark.. and we have.

the passion in his voice has to be heard to be believed, he was a very expressive singer in every song he ever sung, but this one shows just how much emotion he could put in. just brilliant.
