In The Quiet Morning Lyrics

In the quiet morning
There was much despair
And in the hours that followed 
No one could repair

That poor girl 
Tossed by the tides of misfortune
Barely here to tell her tale 
Rolled in on a sea of disaster 
Rolled out on a mainline rail 

She once walked tight at my side 
I'm sure she walked by you 
Her striding steps could not deny 
Torment from a child who knew 

That in the quiet morning
There would be despair 
And in the hours that followed
No one could repair 

That poor girl 
She cried out her song so loud
It was heard the whole world round
A symphony of violence 
The great southwest unbound
