O by lavender light
O my golden day
Sit beside the window in the morning
Watch the roofs and the lights in their change
.
Vertical ray of holiday
.
Test my aloneness
Against the weight and length of the day
I long for greener pasture
But they are not yet of what I am made
.
Vertical ray of holiday
.
Well, the sun will always set
As light streams through the door
We are closer to Tonawanda
Than we have ever been before
.
Vertical ray of holiday
