From the recording THIS MORNING

Lyrics

This Morning


This morning in my bed I wrapped the covers round my head
I couldn’t stand a minute of a day without you in it
I couldn’t force my eyes to face a new sunrise
I thought of how things were as I began to stir

The pull of the night, a promised delight
A lure of the lips, a sway of the hips
Is it this you’ve missed

This morning when I woke up I sank a little coffee in my cup
Though I try not to eat it all I still love cholesterol
I crept into your room- - -a virtual vacuum
No surprise again- - -your bed unslept in

Must I track you down, another night on the town
Must you insist we continue this
Uneasiness

And I’d like to know
What can attract you
Other than weed, women and beer
And I’d like to know
Can you tell me

Why do I stay here

Why do I stay here
