And In The Morning

Olivia Newton-John · Have You Never Been Mellow [1975]

In the early morning when I'm lying by your side

Doubts go through my mind, thoughts I try to hide

Lying there I wonder if your love for me is real

Or just another fantasy



Then I try to think about the way things used to be

Misty memories, hazy like a dream

All we did together, all the things we planned to do

There was only me and you



And in the morning I touch you

And I find you're still there

I want to tell you that I love you

Please never leave me

In the morning light I turn to look at you

And hope that you still care



When I look back on our life, the pieces fall in place

Words that went unsaid, pictures of your face

All those things we shared, yet stay together day by day

Cause our love was never far away



And in the morning I touch you

And I find you're still there

I want to tell you that I love you

Please never leave me

In the morning light I turn to look at you

And hope that you still care

And In The Morning
