lyrics
I used to love the morning
I used to rise before the sun
In those hours of darkness
I am the only one I am the only one
You used to hate the morning
the night was never long enough
and in those hours of darkness
we were the only ones you were the only one for me
I’ll go to sleep and pretend
you still want to put your arms around me
I’ll go to sleep so I don’t
have to think about you anymore
I’ll go to sleep listening
to your songs about me on old recordings
I’ll go to sleep but it won’t feel better in the morning, won’t feel better in the morning
I might deserve a conversation but I’d always pick you instead
I just want words to describe your subtleties so I can get them out of my head
A kiss on the forehead instead of the lips is better than no kiss at all
Even though your hands may hold another’s I’ll always pick up if you call
I’ll go to sleep and pretend
you still want to put your arms around me
I’ll go to sleep so I don’t
have to think about you anymore
I’ll go to sleep listening
to your songs about me on old recordings
I’ll go to sleep but it won’t feel better in the morning, won’t feel better in the morning
Rain curls my hair, time wrinkles the page
but my looks improve with tears and age
At sunrise the streetlights are still glowing for their own sake
My heart keeps glowing glowing glowing growing growing emptier for mine
‘cause the bigger the promise the emptier it is
I’ll go to sleep and pretend
you still want to put your arms around me
I’ll go to sleep so I don’t
have to think about you anymore
I’d go to sleep listening
to your breath and heartbeat slowing slowing
I’ll go to sleep but it won’t feel better in the morning, never feels better in the morning
sometimes remembering feels just like the real thing
