The Black Crowes - Greenhorn lyrics

rate me

Greenhorn dreams of salty seas

Of maidens fair and lovely

Who beckon and call from emerald walls

Of cities far and strange

Greenhorn hears melodies

From mountaintops and low valleys

Of chimney smoke and Easter's hope

And love not lost in vain

I wanna wake up in the morning

(Wake up in the morning)

Wake and look into your eyes

Wake up in the morning

Wake and look into your eyes

Before I see the world

Under darkening skies

Gonna wake up in the morning

Wake and look into your eyes

Greenhorn feels the cold winds blow

Now he knows it's time to go

Now he longs for open roads

He longs to leave the pines

And leave he will with a tearful eye

But he won't stop to wave goodbye

He won't stop to look behind

On just what used to be

I wanna wake up in the morning

(Wake up in the morning)

Wake and look into your eyes

Wake up in the morning

Wake and look into your eyes

Before I see the world

Under darkening skies

I wanna wake up in the morning

Wake and look into your eyes

Days to years

Child to man

Lonely fears

She understands

Ah, ah, ah

I wanna wake up in the morning

(Wake up in the morning)

Wake and look into your eyes

Wake up in the morning

Wake and look into your eyes

Before I see the world

Under darkening skies

I wanna wake up in the morning

Wake and look into your eyes

I wanna wake up in the morning

(Wake up in the morning)

Wake up in the morning

(Wake up in the morning)

Wake up in the morning

Wake and look into your eyes
