Eskimo Joe - Morning Light lyrics

rate me

<BR>

The American situation<br>

Is on our minds again<br>

And I don't know if I've been here before<br>

We would try to go to sleep<br>

But we're running around in circles<br>

For fear of falling down we can't get up<br>

<br>

And I wait for the morning light<br>

To burn away the slings and arrows<br>

flying through the night<br>

And I am home<br>

But I am not a man<br>

They will try to take the things<br>

That you can't hold down with your hands<br>

So hold them down<br>

<br>

A war across an ocean<br>

Is like a dream from which you've woken<br>

If you don't like what you see<br>

then go to sleep<br>

But the smell of smoke is in your hair<br>

And your heavy heart is always there<br>

It's always there<br>

It's always there<br>

It's always there<br>

<br>

And I wait for the morning light<br>

To burn away the slings and arrows<br>

flying through the night<br>

And I am home<br>

But I am not a man<br>

They will try to take your crown<br>

If you can't hold it down<br>

<br>

In the darkness of the winter time<br>

I will try to take you home<br>

In the long grass of evening time<br>

<br>

And I wait for the morning light<br>

To burn away the slings and arrows<br>

flying through the night<br>

And we must wait for this to pass us by<br>

And I will try to close my eyes<br>

I will try to close my eyes<br>

<br>

And I wait for the morning light<br>

To burn away the slings and arrows <br>

flying through the night<br>

And I am home<br>

But I am not a man<br>

I will try to take you home<br>

If you can't hold it down<br>

So hold it down<br>

So hold it down<br>

Yeah yeah yeah yeah<br>

<BR><BR>
