On the morrow, when the night turns into day
And the sky from black to grey
It is then that you may find
Your dreams still linger in your mind
Before the light tugs them away
And then the sun will have his say
He tells you there you can not stay
For all dreams must be left behind
On the morrow
The sun appears with his first ray
Tells you that you must obey
Not to say he is unkind
But he was especally designed
To wake you up without delay
On the morrow

It was pointed out ot me that a Rondeau has 8 syllables in eahc line except the refrain, so here's my second version
On the morrow, night turns to day
And the sky fades from black to grey
It is that time that you may find
Your dreams still linger in your mind
Before the light tugs them away
And then the sun will have his say
He tells you there you can not stay
For all dreams must be left behind
On the morrow
The sun appears with his first ray
To tell you that you must obey
That does not mean he is unkind
He was especially designed
To wake you up without delay
On the morrow
