Morning Time

She's begging me to stay, but my mind's already made

Guess I'll try my luck downtown

I'm feening for a drink that will lead me to believe that this bar is all I need

See, I'm too old to dream, but still too young to sleep

I've grown tired of counting sheep

I'll be back before the sunrise

Walk in too late with bloodshot eyes

I can't promise you my shape, but I'll be alright

I'll be back before a bird cries

By the time you wake, I'll be by your side

So, darling, please don't wait, I'll be back by the morning time

I'll be back by the morning time

It's half past 10:00, and I'm grinning like a kid that's playing with his fate

The old man in the corner, he's been picking just for quarters

Telling stories that you couldn't fake

From whiskey breath talking all to crooked line walking

We ain't leaving till the windows turn gray

I'll be back before the sunrise

Walk in too late with bloodshot eyes

I can't promise you my shape, but I'll be alright

I'll be back before a bird cries

By the time you wake, I'll be by your side

So, darling, please don't wait, I'll be back by the morning time

I'll be back by the morning time

I'll be back by the morning time
