That’s the time that’s the time I love the best

Blue’s the colour of the sky
In the morning when we rise

Green’s the colour of the sparkling corn
In the morning when we rise

Mellow is the feelin’ that I get
When I see her mm hmm

Freedom is a word I rarely use
Without thinkin’ mm hmm
Without thinkin’ mm hmm
Of the time of the time
When I’ve been loved
