Daybreak
Matt Wilson and his Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Daybreak, another new day
The mist on the meadow is drifting away
For it's daybreak, the sun's in the sky now
And flowers break through their blanket of dew

Sunrise, how lovely it seems
To see from my window a sky full of dreams
As the white clouds sail on through the blue
At daybreak I did dream of you

You are not alone my friend

I love how they were not afraid to experiment, and to be creative....

1:41-1:54 is my favorite bit from this song. The C G Bb F chord progression works so well with the synth, the low piano and cellos kick ass in the back, Jeff's guitar is barley audible, but when you can hear it, it's well done. Along with Bev's snare hits and Mike's bass, this is a great part from an amazing album.

Elo didn't do many instrumentals, but the ones they did kicked some serious ass! This , The Whale, Fire On High, all are classic masterpieces! They knew how to do it right ☺️😃😃!

Howard Shillingford

Beautiful. The strings always bring tears to my eyes.
