Josh Ritter - Morning is a Long Way Down lyrics
[Josh Ritter - Morning is a Long Way Down lyrics]
And hold me close to your light
I'm too weak for flying tonight
I've been running all nighttime
Trying to hide from the hounds
And morning is a long way down
I was always the strongest
So young and so fast
I was always sure that it would last
And now I'm stuck here at midnight
And there's cliffs all around
And morning is a long way down
I never ask the hard questions
I never try to transform
I was always just waiting to be born
But now the sun's tied with night-chains
Like Prometheus, bound
And morning is a long way down
So wrap your arms around me
And hold me close to your light
I'm too weak for flying tonight
But, I don't care about nighttime
Or the light that is gone
If you'll just hold me 'til dawn
