Pretty World - Sam Baker

Before the sun

Before the heat

Before we untangle from our sheets

Before this summer day unfurls

Pretty world

Before the paper is dropped at the gate

Before the coffee, before we are late

Before dreams are lost like midnight pearls

Pretty world, pretty roses

Pretty smile morning light

Pretty eyes lazy curls

Pretty world

Before the traffic before the jets

Before the sound of your footsteps

Fades away like summer girls

Pretty World
