Morning Light

Used to wake with sun in my eyes,

Now the dawn forgets to rise.

She was the light that kissed the day,

Now my skies are cold and gray.

Coffee tastes like her goodbye,

And every morning asks me why.

She took the morning light,

Left me to this endless night.

Now the sun don't shine right,

Since she took the morning light.

Curtains drawn, shadows stay,

Time don't move, it just decays.

She was warmth in every breath,

Now all that's left is quiet death.

She took the morning light,

Left my soul out of sight.

Even dawn don't feel bright,

Since she took the morning light.

If love's a flame, then mine's gone cold,

Burned out before it got old.

And I'm just ash in the bed where she slept,

With a heart full of promises that she never kept.

Oh, the promises she never kept.

Yeah, she took the morning light!

Now I'm just lost here in the night!

I'd trade my blues for her sight,

God knows I'd trade it all for her sight...

But she took the morning light.

I open the blinds, but all I see

The dark she left inside of me.

Yeah, the dark she left... inside of me.
