Morning glory, New Year dawning
I can hear Blue Heron calling

Beckoning to me to play
Hide and seek this New Year day

First light sun smiles 'cross the water
Amid the sound of lake birds' chatter

Robin red breast in the trees
Posing oh so beautifully

Only One I cannot find
Is that sweet Blue Heron mine

Just as I am about to leave
I hear a loud call from behind me

I turn around and I behold
Blue Heron on the beach...so bold

I just walked by your bushy home
thinking that I was alone

And that the lake was quiet and still
And that I would not see you 'til

Some other day, some other time
Elusive sweet Blue Heron mine.

Oh. we play the game so well
I fly away, now, can you tell

Where I'm going to land this time?
I will find you, sweet Heron mine...

Fly all you want to
I can see you, follow you

You're way too big to hide behind
Anything, sweet Heron mine
