Night after night as I stare at the light
I squint just to make out your shape
My eyes they are weary, bloodshot and bleary
The outskirts are black and I can’t see your face
Morning by morning I wake up adoring
The dark and the lids of my eyes
I should love the dawn as I put my clothes on
But I block out your voice and I put up a fight
Day after day in the very worst way
I find ways of wasting my time
The time that you found me sleeping so soundly
Was the best that I’d spent in a very long time
So when this day’s over and I reach for the covers
Weary and tired as hell
Then I’m reminded when true dawn is blindin’
That all will be right and all will be well
Then I’m reminded when true dawn is blindin’
That all will be right and all will be well
