L'AVENTURE

Chorus
The adventure begins in the morning
The morning of every day
The adventure begins the moment when
We see the sun’s first ray
The adventure begins in the morning
As soon as we arise
The adventure is the treasure which
We see when we open our eyes
For Mike it’s the iron on the anvil
For Daniel the football and beer
For Yvonne it’s the foaming sea
It’s the day God has made
It’s the corn that one beats
The adventure begins in the morning
The morning of every day
The adventure begins the moment when
We see the sun’s first ray

This isn’t the world we knew yesterday
Each new day’s our chance to start once again
To change the cards with which we play
To feel the sun and not more rain
It’s out there beyond the fence and the stile
It’s ours if we climb the highest peak
Seeing in the distant miles
The great adventure which we seek

Chorus
All those who have the adventure with us
The friends and neighbours by our side
In city streets, in shady lanes
On wooded hills we run and hide
Or stand in the wind sowing the corn
Casting the future into the world
All we do now is for those yet unborn –
The great adventure which unfurls
