birdsong on the breeze Lyrics by Rae Morris
When the sun bursts through the clouds
And the world takes its first breaths
And my head’s not upon your chest
I’ll stay in bed and continue to rest
The floor is buried under clothes
And the bathroom light’s still on
When the doorbell rings, I don’t respond
‘Cause I’ve been here since you’ve been gone
Waking up is hard to do
‘Cause I’m so used to waking up with you
Morning isn’t morning without you
Morning isn’t morning without you
I woke to birdsong on the breeze
But there’s a cold space where you usually sleep
Where I haven’t changed the sheets for weeks
So I won’t stir until your fragrance leaves
Waking up is hard to do
‘Cause I’m so used to waking up with you
Morning isn’t morning without you
Morning isn’t morning without you
Until you come home, I’ll keep my curtains closed
Until you come home, I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
My next-door neighbour starts her car
I hum along to distant fire alarms
And I should’ve made you change your mind
Convinced you to stay a while longer at mine
Waking up is hard to do
‘Cause I’m so used to waking up with you
Morning isn’t morning without you
Morning isn’t morning without you
Morning isn’t morning without you
Morning isn’t morning without you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
I’ll replay waking up with you
