Vertical Ray

O by lavender light
O my golden day
Sit beside the window in the morning
Watch the roofs and the lights in their change

Vertical ray of holiday

Test my aloneness
Against the weight and length of each day
I long for greener pasture
But they are not yet of what I am made

Vertical ray of holiday

Well, the sun will always set
As light streams through the door
We are closer to Tonawanda
Than we have ever been before

Vertical ray of holiday
