"Touch Me In The Morning" lyrics

"Touch Me In The Morning"

Now I am strong enough
Now I am strong enough
To accept change
Yes, my darling, if you want to live in another place
I can understand it
It's gonna hurt for a little while
But I can understand it
But before you walk out that door

Touch me in the morning
Then just walk away
We don't have tomorrow
But we had yesterday

Wasn't it me who said that nothing good's gonna last forever?
And wasn't it me who said let's just be glad for the time together?
It must've been hard to tell me that you've given all you had to give
I can understand you're feeling that way
Everybody's got their life to live

Well, I can say goodbye in the cold, morning light
But I can't watch love die in the warmth of the night
If I got to be strong, don't you know I'll need your
Love tonight when you're gone? Till you go I need to
Just lie here and think about
The very last time you'll ever

Oh, touch me in the morning
Then just close the door
Leave me as you found me
Oh, empty like before

Wasn't it yesterday we used to laugh at the wind behind us?
Didn't we run away and hope that time wouldn't try to find us?
Didn't we take each other to a place where no one's ever been?
Yeah, I really need you near me tonight
'Cause you'll never take me there again

Let me watch you go with the sun in my eyes
We've seen how love can grow, now we'll watch how it dies
If I got to be strong, don't you know I'll need your
Love tonight when you're gone? Till you go I need to
Hold onto you
Until the time your hands reach out

Oh, and touch me in the morning

Didn't we take each other to a place where no one's ever been?
Yeah, I really need your near me tonight
'Cause you'll never take me there again

Let me watch you go with the sun in my eyes
We've seen how love can grow, now we'll watch how it dies
If I got to be strong, don't you know I've got to
Have tonight till you're gone?
Till you're gone, I need to
Use all my imagination
Just to think about the time when you loved me so well

I don't mind it if I got to be strong, ooh
Just as long as I can have tonight
Turn off the TV
Turn off all the lights and come on (Touch me)

Oh, oh, if I got to be strong, I don't mind it
(Have to latch to your heart) Give me tonight, darling
Forget about the neighbors
Forget about all my friends

Oh, if I got to be strong, I can use it
(Have to latch to your heart) Just tonight, baby
Just tonight, huh
Just tonight, I will not ask for tomorrow
Oh, no, no (Touch me)

If I got to be stronger and stronger, and stronger
(Have to latch to your heart) And my love will grow longer
And longer, and longer, I will have the memories
