Morning Sky
Dan Fogelberg · Triple Feature [2009]
We had a good thing going strong
And never doubted
Lately, I feel changes comin' on
I know that I will soon be gone
And you don't even want to talk about it
Oh, and it makes me stop and wonder why
People give their hearts and turn
Around and say goodbye
If there's something on your mind
You better say it while there's time
'Cause I'm leavin' when I see that morning sky
Oh, how did we ever come to this?
There's nothing for me in your kisses anymore
Late nights in the kitchen
I'm pretending I still care
But we both know there's nothing there
And you just keep on starin' at the door
Oh, and it makes me stop and wonder why
People give their hearts and turn
Around and say goodbye
If there's something on your mind
You better say it while there's time
'Cause I'm leavin' when I see that morning sky
Oh, and it makes me stop and wonder why
People give their hearts and turn
Around and say goodbye
If there's something on your mind
You better say it while there's time
'Cause I'm leavin' when I see that morning sky
You and I were lovers all along
We had a good thing going strong
And never doubted
Lately, I feel changes comin' on
I know that I will soon be gone
And you don't even want to talk about it
Oh, and it makes me stop and wonder why
People give their hearts and turn
Around and say goodbye
If there's something on your mind
You better say it while there's time
'Cause I'm leavin' when I see that morning sky
See that morning sky

Dan Fogelberg's "Morning Sky" stands as a quintessential example of his melodic pop-rock style, characterized by lush harmonies and introspective songwriting. While the track appears on the 2009 compilation "Triple Feature," it reflects the enduring appeal of Fogelberg's catalog, which blends acoustic guitar with polished production. The song captures a reflective mood typical of his work, often exploring themes of love and personal growth. Released during a period where Fogelberg continued to release curated collections of his greatest hits, the recording maintains the warm, organic sound that defined his career from the early 1970s through the 1990s. It remains a staple for fans seeking the emotional depth and melodic beauty that made him a beloved figure in American folk and pop music.
