It's Just Another Morning Here
Nanci Griffith
The telephone rings in the middle of the night
I pull the bed clothes higher
Will it stop calling out if I turn on the light?
I'm afraid of these shadows here
'Cuz my past is tryly frightening
And I'm afraid of the warmth in the down of a feathered heart in fligth
Chorus
It's just another morning here (it's morning)
It's just another morning here
It's just another morning here (it's morning)
And it's a miracle when it comes around
Every day of the year
The neighbors scream and their baby cries
I'm hiding in the corner
I won't be them, pray I won't be them one day
Maybe it's just the breath of August
So hot upon my shoulders
Or an open window for the winged heart to fly away
Repeat Chorus
Repeat First Verse
Repeat Chorus
