Morning Man

I arise to the 5 AM skies Left over from yesterday With a moan I reach out for the phone It's her says, she's on her way And fifteen minutes later I hear the elevator I gave her my apartment key So she eases in and lies with me Pay my way with a nine to five day She's working a midnight grind Dressed in white by the dawn's eerie light She reaches my cobwebbed mind She brews us up some coffee And pulls the covers off me I grab her wrist and pull her near And the night begins to clear Morning man, doesn't take much to wake me Just you shake your morning man I've been dreaming of how you'll wake me Since this endless night began So curl up with your early riser In my eyes you see the plan You'll catch up on your sleep this evening And I'll be your morning man Eight at night in the last of the light I wander back home again Time is cheap 'cause I know she's asleep And out for the count 'til ten And when she's finally wakin' I'll fix some eggs and bacon She'll say, "Goodnight, I'm late again" I'll say, "Goodnight, I'll wait" Morning man, doesn't take much to wake me Just you shake your morning man I've been dreaming of how you'll wake me Since this endless night began So curl up with your early riser In my eyes you see the plan You'll catch up on your sleep this evening And I'll be your morning man
