Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning And the first thing that I heard Was the song outside my window And the traffic wrote the words It came ringing up like Christmas bells
And rapping up like pipes and drums
Won´t you stay We´ll put on the day And we´ll wear it ´till the night comes Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning And the first thing that I saw Was the sun through yellow curtains And a rainbow on the wall Red, green and gold to welcome you And crimson crystal beads to beckon
Won´t you stay We´ll put on the day There´s a sun shower every second (instrumental) Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning And the first thing that I knew
There was milk and toast and honey And a bowl of oranges, too And the light poured in like butterscotch And stuck to all my senses
Won´t you stay We´ll put on the day And we´ll talk in present tenses
