Candy Apple Morning
Music & Lyrics by Nikki O’Neill
open the blinds, invite the light in
I start making tea in the kitchen
butter on bread, the paper unread
the first bird greets the sun and I listen
candy apple morning
I’m struck and I’m glowing
candy apple morning
you got me rollin’
I look outside, they’re wiping down tables
a lady is sweeping the sidewalk
down by the bar, a forgotten guitar
with mother-of-pearl on the headstock
candy apple morning
I’m struck and I’m glowing
candy apple morning
you got me rollin’
some stay up late, love the dark to create
come alive when the lights are low
I’d rather engage when the day’s a blank page
that’s where I find my flow
open the blinds, let the light in
there’s cardamom tea in the kitchen
got paper and pen, you never know when
the first note comes alive and I listen
I’m struck and I’m glowing
you got me rollin’
