Another Day Lyrics - Singles - Strawbs

An orange balloon on the distant horizon 

The air had a nip for the sun was still rising 

A delicate fusion of ambery tone 

Brought warmth to the shore where I walked all alone 

Another day begins. 

A crab scuttled awkwardly, shyly away 

Perhaps the strangest of all nature's rebels 

Night shed its cloak with the sounds of the day 

The gentle lap of the tide on the pebbles 

Another day begins, another day. 

The gulls on the breeze, soaring over my head 

Like marionettes with invisible thread 

The day unfurled like the flags on a mast 

Spelling a message of sunshine at last 

Another day begins, another day. 

I walked along for miles 

The clear blue sky was free 

And the smiles shone like pearls on the sea 

Another day begins, another day. 

Far too soon it was time to be leaving 

A gull flew ahead of me bobbing and weaving 

It caught my eye with a quizzical stare 

Was it my love, was it she who was there? 

Another day begins. 

I climbed the steep path to the high cliff top's heather 

The sea was as clear as a fresh mountain stream 

The gull as it circled away dropped a feather 

A souvenir of a beautiful day dream 

Another day begins, another day.
