In the Morning

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Now don't look to find me

In the morning

By the time the sun opens your eyes

I'm gonna be gone, yes I will

'Cause I told you one day I'd leave you

In the morning, baby

You knew that this day would come along oh no

It's not like I, I didn't want to love you

I just can't stay in one place too long

You think I lied and I made a fool of you

Oh, but you know that's wrong

Aww baby

Now I know you're gonna be wondering

In the morning

Why I didn't wake you

Why I didn't wake you to say goodbye, oh no

But I knew that you'd beg me to stay

In the morning, baby

And I couldn't bear to think that I made you cry

I couldn't do that, yeah

It's not like I, I didn't want to love you

I just can't stay in one place too long

You think I lied and I made a fool of you

Oh, but you know that's wrong

Aww man

Now someday you won't be alone

In the morning

You're gonna have someone of your own

Lord, mama, he's gonna take my place

And I know he's never gonna leave you

In the morning (ah)

My haunting shadow will soon be erased

Aww, yes it will (ah)

I know I'm gonna leave you (in the morning)

In the morning, baby

(Ah) I'm gonna try, and someday I'm gonna pack my bags

And I'm gonna move on down that highway, baby

I said I'm gonna leave, I said I'm gonna leave

I said I'm gonna leave
