Marvelous Things

Originally the title track on the Marvelous Things EP, this song was rerecorded for Room Noises. It was technically Eisley's first nationally-released single; the video (which features a back yard birthday party scene where the band is performing) made it onto alternative stations all over the country.

Lyrics


I awoke the dawn
saw horses growing out the lawn
ah ah .....

I glimpsed a bat with butterfly wings
oh what marvelous things
ah ah....

Dark night...hold tight, and sleep tight
my baby
Morning light...shall burst bright
and keep us here safely

I followed a rabbit
through rows of mermaid entwined shrubbery
Ah ah....
Oh what marvelous things but, they are, they are, they are
giving me the creeps

Dark night...hold tight, and sleep tight
my baby
Morning light...shall burst bright
and keep us here safely

Oh...lying in the sun
everday feeling all of the magic in life
and the wonder.....

Dark night...hold tight, and sleep tight
my baby
Morning light...shall burst bright
and keep us here safely
morning light...shall burst bright
and keep us here safely
Ah ah.....
