It Happened At Dawn Lyrics by Justin Hurwitz

2010

It happened at dawn
Happened in this park
A guy and girl had dallied 'til the moon was gone
Then it sprang and up the moment came the Suns to blame, their love happened at dawn
They'd met the night before, the water shore
He played his horn across the park
And so they strolled and spoke of years of old back when the folks would dance in the dark
They found a place to sit, where all the lamps werе lit, their fingers grazed, hands almost touchеd so long
Then the Sun arose and split the mist, the guy and girl they stole a kiss, it happened at the break of dawn
Right at dawn

She slipped through his hand, she felt like sand, she wondered if her face was sweet enough
He dove in, he kissed her with a grin, then wondered if his lips felt too rough
Then the Sun began its morning, when the fountain, when they thought it might be time to take a chance
Start a new life, with a new romance
Yes all that fades away, that's what folks like to say
But these two kids, they needed love, what's wrong?
When they said their love would stay alive, it grew until the day they died, it happened at the break of dawn
