- Janis Ian goodbye to morning 歌詞
- Janis Ian
- Don't sing me love songs
You know they make me cry Don't bring me any promises You've none I want to buy Don't send me any letters You know I never learned to read Leave them on the doorstep Sit back and watch me bleed Bleeding for the sailors Who never caught the tide And the wind goes on forever Tomorrow never dies And I wave goodbye to morning And stake my life on land I was sitting on the doorstop Watching Satan have his day It was half past morning 'Fore I tore myself away I've never looked beyond the mirrors Of our used-to-be The gilded edges shadow sketches In the light of memory And I found the paint by number With your name across the top And the room began to dance To the spinning of the clock And I waved goodbye to morning But I left the door unlocked Well, the tears flow like wine And the salt makes you blind So you beg a little time 'Cause you're choking on the vine But the words begin to pour And it feels just like war And your face is on the floor And you cannot find the door And I think I found the answer Where you left it on the shelf But it's too late to wonder If I left it there myself And the room begins to rock And the walls begin to steam And the clock won't stop And I'm living in between And I wave goodbye to morning And stake my life on dreams
