Whippoorwill - Fruition

Lie awake in the morning light

I couldn’t sleep through the easy night

It’s hard to rest from a worried mind

Imagining what I’d like to find

Your voice is ringing in my ears

I haven’t heard for three long years

‘cause you flew on down to Chapel Hill

Now I hear your call

Through the whippoorwill

Could it be you trying to say to me?

You’re still with me baby, I’m still here

Had to fly but don’t wonder why

‘cause all things due to you, they

They come in time

We used to sing those Broadway tunes

And Carole King, and Johnny and June

We would stoke a little fire and curl on up, baby

Just the two of us

Now I don’t know why I turned away

‘cause now I look back to the good ol' days

But a part of you is with me still

‘cause I hear your call

Through the whippoorwill

And other birds might flock to me

With all their songs and melodies

I love them all, I do, it’s true

But when I hear that call

I know it’s you
