You're Gonna Love Yourself in the Morning
Brenda Lee · Other Songs - Brenda Lee
(Donnie Fritts)
Heaven knows that some man has abused you
I guess that's why you think I'm gonna use you
You'll hate yourself in the morning
'Cause you'll wake up and I'll be gone
You'll give me just one more chance
I can prove your wrong.
And you're gonna love yourself in the morning
'Cause I'm gonna love you all night long
You're gonna love yourself in the morning
And every morning from now on.
I know what you're thinking I don't blame you
Know it's gonna take a whole lot of love to change you
But when I wake up in the morning
You're gonna find I'm still your girl
And you'll see that it can be such a beautiful world.
And You're gonna love yourself in the morning
'Cause I'm gonna love you good all night long
You're gonna love yourself in the morning
And every morning from now on.
Yes, every morning from now on...
Heaven knows that some man has abused you
I guess that's why you think I'm gonna use you
You'll hate yourself in the morning
'Cause you'll wake up and I'll be gone
You'll give me just one more chance
I can prove your wrong.
And you're gonna love yourself in the morning
'Cause I'm gonna love you all night long
You're gonna love yourself in the morning
And every morning from now on.
I know what you're thinking I don't blame you
Know it's gonna take a whole lot of love to change you
But when I wake up in the morning
You're gonna find I'm still your girl
And you'll see that it can be such a beautiful world.
And You're gonna love yourself in the morning
'Cause I'm gonna love you good all night long
You're gonna love yourself in the morning
And every morning from now on.
Yes, every morning from now on...
