i have always found comfort in music & one person who provides anthems for my life & always will is Dolly. Dolly wrote Light of a Clear Blue Morning after leaving the Porter Wagoner Show & experiencing a whole lotta change. I could try to explain what this song means & represents for me but Dolly herself says it best.
"As I left his office and began to drive toward my home out in Brentwood, it began to rain, so did I. I cried. Not so much out of a sense of loss, but from the pain that almost always comes with change. It has a sad kind of freedom. Then I began to sing a song to myself. 'It's been a long dark night, and I've been waiting for the morning. It's been a long hard fight, but I see a brand new day dawning. I been looking for the sunshine. I ain't seen it in so long. Everything's going to work out just fine. Everything's going to be all right, that's been all wrong. I can see the light of a clear blue morningβ. I swear to you on my life, as I said that, the sky cleared up, it stopped raining, the sun came out, and before I got home I had completely written the song called Light of a Clear Blue Morning"
