Chorus: Morning sun When You gonna take Me back where I belong Morning sun When You gonna take Me back where I belong Standing here on aching feet With nobody up to meet Me but the morning sun Looking for a ride to take Me somewhere Anywhere closer to the place where I've begun I left home with just a dream A dream of something I've never seen But I just can't seem to find it anywhere Repeat Chorus Everyone along the highway Looking for a way to make their dreams come true All I found is loneliness And an aching in My heart that cries for You I can see Your golden hair I can see You standing there Crying as You watch Me walk away Repeat Chorus and fade

about

"Morning Sun", originally titled, "Mornin' Sun", performed by pop singer Larry Santos is the one of the lost Christian-flavored pop songs of 1970, which is an early example of Christian-pop music that is way before Michael W. Smith, Twila Paris, Sheila Walsh, Kathy Troccoli, Sandi Patti and Amy Grant. It was written by himself and Michael Valvano, who was a member of the popular white soul Motown group, Mike & The Modifiers. It was missed out on the Billboard Hot 100 pop music charts when it was ruined by a suggestive song by The Beatles, entitled, "I Am The Walrus".
