Song lyrics:

MORNINGSIDE
THE OLD MAN DIED
AND NO ONE CRIED
THEY SIMPLY TURNED AWAY...

AND WHEN HE DIED
HE LEFT A TABLE
MADE OF NAILS AND PRIDE
AND WITH HIS HANDS
HE CARVED THESE WORDS INSIDE
FOR MY CHILDREN

MORNING LIGHT
MORNING BRIGHT
I SPENT THE NIGHT
WITH DREAMS
THAT MAKE YOU WEEP

MORNING TIME
WASH AWAY THE SADNESS
FROM THESE EYES OF MINE
FOR I RECALL THE WORDS
AN OLD MAN SIGNED
FOR MY CHILDREN

Spoken...
AND THE LEGS WERE
SHAPED WITH HIS HANDS
AND THE TOP
MADE OF OAKEN WOOD

AND THE CHILDREN WHO SAT
AROUND THIS GREAT TABLE
TOUCHED IT
WITH THEIR LAUGHTER
AH... THAT WAS GOOD

Resume Singing...
MORNINGSIDE
AN OLD MAN DIED
AND NO ONE CRIED
HE SURELY DIED ALONE

AND THE TRUTH IS SAD
FOR NOT A CHILD WOULD
CLAIM THE GIFT HE HAD
THE WORDS HE CARVED
BECAME HIS EPITAPH
FOR MY CHILDREN
