lyrics

I close my eyes against the morning light
as another day of loneliness begins
Wondering why, if things were going so right,
I’m left without her loving again
I could cry until I hurt my eyes
but I’m just wasting good water and salt
And if I die because I can’t live without her,
it’s no-one else’s fault

It’s just one of those get up in the morning,
stretching and yawning, stumbling downstairs in a haze
Trying to stay awake and finding myself shaking
feeling forsaken kind of days

I close my eyes so I don’t have to see
those dirty dishes piling tall
It won’t be long till I forget to eat
then the squalor won’t bother me at all
I could lie and say I don’t miss her,
I don’t care if she never comes home
But behind the pretence of laughter I’m still left here all alone

Facing one of those late in the evening,
crying and grieving, seeing it all in a different light
Drowning my sorrow, can’t face tomorrow,
pining for her kind of nights

I close my eyes against the coming night
as the darkness closes in
Wondering why, if things were going so right,
I’m left without her loving again

Consequently he’s the purest country singer practising his art on these islands, and the finest
