lyrics

You wake up every morning
And it’s all new to you
To keep it this way
There’s nothing I won’t do
But I won’t lie and tell you
That it’s always ok
And I’ll try and stay calm
At least for today

You woke up this morning it’s dull and grey
And I can’t remember when it became this way
But your sunlight cracks
Through my cold mind
There’s moments of lightness creeping through the blinds

You rise every morning
With a light in your eyes
It’s all new to you it’s a constant surprise
And every sound you hear is perfect harmony
And every breath of air is as clean as can be
And every instant a brand new memory
And every note an unstolen melody

You woke up this morning
And the world was kissing clean
And every photon was the brightest you’ve ever seen
Every speak of dust floats gentle in your eye
And I could go on but I’m trying not to cry
Let’s go on
