Lyrics

VERSE 1
Sunrise paints my bedroom ceiling
woke up with a gloomy feelin'
this day is new but time feels old
dead sleep lonely I've been told

I hug your pillow, feel so cold
away is silver, home is gold
pond'rin' about why you're not here
"or not to be" wrote Shakespeare

CHORUS
Don’t you stay away too long
listen to my honest song
porch light's burnin' bright and strong
I'm still here to hold the line
Don’t you stay away too long
get here where your heart belongs
run your roads to seek and find
take your time but don't waste mine

VERSE 2
Let the storm roar, all trees fall
I'll be waiting, standing tall
this heart's a flare burnin' bright
told you want you by my side

don't you expect me be so strong
I've written forty loner songs
time is runnin' my time is tight
get back soon and fix me right

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Another lonely morning
blackbird sings a wake-up tune
this solitude now thorns me
the end is coming soon
