In the morning

Shut the bedroom window in the morning
Go to the shop, make plans to be leaving
In the morning…

Thought I was sleeping, it was just a dream
An alleycat chewing on dead leaves
In the morning…

Out of the dark and into the light
When the morning comes
I will be alright

When I leave I try not to wake her
Tea and a toast to yesterday’s capers
In the morning….

She wrote my name on the red telephone box
When I got there she’d already rubbed it off
In the morning….

Out of the dark and into the light
When the morning comes I will be alright

And all this time I’ve watched it change
But it’s still the same

In the morning…
In the morning…
In the morning…
In the morning…
