In The Morning Light She Laid There In The Grass

She Was Till Dressed In Her White Homecoming Gown

I Helped Her Back To Her Room

She Was Cold Against My Shoulder

I Tried Not To Wake Her Up As I Laid Her Down

Then I Sat There And Watched Her Sleep For A While

I've Admired Her For So Long From Far Away

If I Could Hold Her In My Arms, Then Maybe She Could Love Me,

If I Could Only Find The Words That I Want To Say



Sullen Like A Dream That I Once Had

Made Me Feel Scared And Lonely

She'll Never Know How She Got Back

What Her Eyes Had Shown Me

And I Close The Door And Walk Away

I Close The Door And Walk Away...

But I Want To Stay...



The Leaves Below My Feet Crumbled At My Steps

And The Sun Has Risen Higher Than It Was Before

I Step Into My Car And I Drive For A While

I Can't Stand The Same Scenery Anymore



I Stop Along The Bridge, And I Close My Earthly Eyes

And I Wonder What This World Can Offer Me

Cars They Move Below Me And I Seem To Realize, And I Look

Up At The Sky And Call Her Name.



Chorus
