Morning Man Lyrics

Morning Man lyrics

I arise to the 5 AM skies

Left over from yesterday

With a moan I reach out for the phone

It's her says, she's on her way



And fifteen minutes later

I hear the elevator

I gave her my apartment key

So she eases in and lies with me



Pay my way with a nine to five day

She's working a midnight grind

Dressed in white by the dawn's eerie light

She reaches my cobwebbed mind



She brews us up some coffee

And pulls the covers off me

I grab her wrist and pull her near

And the night begins to clear



Morning man, doesn't take much to wake me

Just you shake your morning man

I've been dreaming of how you'll wake me

Since this endless night began



So curl up with your early riser

In my eyes you see the plan

You'll catch up on your sleep this evening

And I'll be your morning man



Eight at night in the last of the light

I wander back home again

Time is cheap 'cause I know she's asleep

And out for the count 'til ten



And when she's finally wakin'

I'll fix some eggs and bacon

She'll say, "Goodnight, I'm late again"

I'll say, "Goodnight, I'll wait"



Morning man, doesn't take much to wake me

Just you shake your morning man

I've been dreaming of how you'll wake me

Since this endless night began



So curl up with your early riser

In my eyes you see the plan

You'll catch up on your sleep this evening

And I'll be your morning man
