Why Can't It Wait Till Morning

Phil Collins · Hello, I Must Be Going ! [1982]

Why can't it wait 'til morning?

We can talk about it then

'Cos I've had a drink too many

And my troubles, well I ain't got any



Why can't it wait 'til daylight?

Things will seem much clearer then

I'm tired and my eyes are weary

And I just want you lying here with me



So close your eyes

I'll make it oh, so nice



Cos I don't wanna think about what we've said

And I don't wanna know why we hurt ourselves

'Cos I just wanna hold you so close to me

It'll take care of itself and I wanna sleep once more



So why can't it wait 'til next time?

'Cos that time may never come

Stay here with your arms around me

You're going nowhere without me



So close your eyes

I'll make it oh, so nice for you
