When The Morning Comes
Hall And Oates · The Essential Daryl Hall & John Oates [2005]
She stood me up and I stood there waiting
But it'll be all right when The Morning Comes
Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair
I've got nowhere to go, so I can go anywhere
And it'll be all right when the Morning Comes
Just in passing, I'm not asking that you can be anyone but you
When you come home try to come home alone
It's so much better with two
Now I'm out in the cold and I'm getting old
Standing here waiting on you
But it'll be all right when the Morning Comes
