Tell Me in the Morning

Stick around greenleaf, now that she's gone

Take my time when I got to bed, and I sleep long

I'm getting over, mulling over

I said, "Could you just wait to tell me in the morning?"

Slow it down, slow it down

And lay it low, save it for the morning

I know that you would like, like to change me

Make me softer to your voice like a baby

I'm using caution, but you're warning

I wish that you could wait to tell me in the morning

Slow it down, slow it down

And lay it low, save it for the morning

I'm shouting questions, like a fist fight

You try to take me by the arms lead me to the light

I'm almost over, warring over

I wish that you could wait to tell me in the morning

Slow it down, slow it down

And lay it low, save it for the morning

And I'll tell you one more thing

I confess to self deception

And I broke the lock and I pried it open

Then pretended to be stolen

I am my own thief in the night

Struggled for many years just to get here

To learn humility and be my own teacher

I guess it backfired 'cause my motive

Was just to take and never care 'bout what I give

Slow it down, slow it down

And lay it low, save it for the morning

I'm shouting questions like a fist fight

You try to take me by the arms lead me to the light

I'm almost over, warring over

I wish that you could wait to tell me in the morning

Slow it down, slow it down

Laying low, save it for the morning

But I'll tell you one more thing

I confess to self deception

And I broke the lock and I pried it open

Then pretended to be stolen

I am my own thief in the night
