Mist On A Monday Morning Lyrics

Mist On A Monday Morning lyrics

I wake and yawn at the crack of dawn

With dewdrops on my feet

As I rise up to greet the morning

Nothing much to eat

Every breath I take seems to make my body ache

My only friend is mist on a Monday morning



Pick up my sack and walk for miles

Never thinking why

To the brewer's yard where I can sit

And watch my life go by

Drink and Drink all day till my memory melts away

I need a friend like mist on a Monday morning



*Where's my wife, has she gone

I hear misty morning call

One foot resting in the grave

Destined not to see her anymore



There's a den in the grass by the autopath

Of corrugated steel

I may be sleeping there tonight

And depending how I feel

Damp and dirty place

Printing sorrow on my face

With nothing but the mist on a Monday morning



(*repeat)



From... I feel the sin

Like wheels upon my feet

Intoxicated by the night

I stumbled in the street

Every breath I take seems to make my body ache

And drift into the mist on a Monday morning
