But in the morning...

The nights were dark and torturous,

You cried in every grind and ******

As I held guard and closed my doors,

but in the morning, I was yours.

 

You'd pull me closer, without shame,

I'd bury, drink and drive away,

and swear I'll hurt you even more

but in the morning, I was yours.

 

And still, I hear your sirens call,

your arms open to catch my fall,

with my whispers of "are you sure?"

But by the morning, I am yours.

 

So with your lands so far from mine,

I take solace and play with time

dreamt only in your company,

In that morning, I will be free.
