Farewell Andromeda (Welcome to My Morning) Lyrics

Welcome to my morning
Welcome to my day
I’m the one responsible
I made it just this way
To make myself some pictures
See what they might bring
I think I made it perfectly
I wouldn’t change a thing

Welcome to my happiness
You know it makes me smile
And it pleases me to have you here
For just a little while
While we open up the spaces
Try to break some chains
And if the truth is told
They will never come again

Welcome to my evening
The closing of the day
I could try a million times
Never find a better way
To tell you that I love you
And all the songs I play
Are to thank you for allowing me
Inside this lovely day

Welcome to my morning
Welcome to my day
Yes, I’m the one responsible
I made it just this way
To make myself some pictures
And see what they might bring
I think I made it perfectly
I wouldn’t change a thing

Cover art for Farewell Andromeda (Welcome to My Morning) lyrics by John Denver

John Denver often expressed his love of the earth, nature and his fellow humans in the words of His songs. In this song He seems to be speaking on behalf of our creator in the first two verses, echoing the Biblical creation. The third verse He sings on behalf of himself, thanking His creator. The most interesting lines are "It please me to have you here for just a little while" - the short human lifespan. Yet He goes on to express the hope of something more when He says "If the truth is told they (chains) will never come again." This song is about creation and the hope of eternity. It is one of John Denver's most haunting and beautiful compositions.

Just because someone denies the existence of God, it doesn\'t mena He doesn\'t exist. John Denver, along with many great artists and scientists, believed in a Creator. Scientific and scriptural evidence proves that God exists. Without him, there is no hope for the future. The Bible warned us that, in our generation, humans would be "Ruining the earth."

my interpretation.. this song really hits me..

JD's lyrics are many times 'meditative' and mind expanding.. to me, this song is about waking up and 'painting' his own reality each morning.. regardless of our own situations, we all have the option to make our situation into an amazingly positive one or otherwise.. it would appear that he chooses the prior.. then specifically the lines

While we open up the spaces (mind expanding meditation possibly) Try to break some chains And if the truth is told (expose those 'not good' things from our past) They will never come again (the truth will set you free, I can attest)..

again, just how this song 'hits' me.. and I find this meditative side of JD in a lot of his lyrics.. fantastic poems that he has left behind for us all to enjoy!

Cheers!
