She Don't Need the Morning
You Am I
I sleep as sound as a train crash
And wake like I got out of gaol
My heart is jumpin' like somethin's wrong in the mail.
And you're stretched out like a portrait
One that I've kept in my mind
If I just knew what was behind that lullaby smile
So each damn morning I'm straight up
To catch whatever's waking up
To keep from breaking up
But I wonder who she's dreaming with
and what, where, with, and who
she don't need the morning like I do
she don't need the morning like I do
So to a sky all kissed with brusies
I drag my bones outside
The shake the cake 'neath my eyelids to peel back the light.
But I know just where I belong now
And there's nothing like coming on home
with a big ol chunk of the daylight to call my own
So each damn morning straight up
To catch whatever's waking up
That's why I'm breaking up
But I wonder who she's dreaming with
and what where with and who
she don't need the morning like I do
she don't need the morning like I do
There's a color on this town now
it's just for me
As it stretches out and opens
its arms to see
the blanket of sleep
So each damn morning straight up
To catch whatever's waking up
To keep from breaking up
But I wonder who she's dreaming with
and what where with and who
she don't need the morning like I do
she don't need the morning like I do
she don't need the morning like I do
