MUSIC / GROUND LIFT / THE MORNING AFTER

The Morning After

This is the morning after
Now get up and find your way
Fill your bags with laughter
And save your troubles for yesterday

Nothing’s too far, nothing’s too late
Don’t be fooled by the hands of time
It’s just you and the great wide open
And something else still undefined

When the past becomes a load you cannot carry
Let go of something you’re able to do without
Your memory is a thread on the verge of snapping
Don’t keep your wondering mind in endless doubt

Don’t be afraid of what’s coming up
All that you own ain’t what you’ve got
Rising shadows in the twilight hours
Forgotten seeds of exotic flowers
Who would have thought you’d try again?
Who would have thought there’s a chance between now and then?

(Who would have thought you’d try again?)
(Who would have thought you’d try again?)

Not heading for disaster
Your future’s still an empty page
The seeds you’ve sown on dry ground
Are just in need of rain and sunny days
This is the morning after
No echoes left to hold you back
Doubtless minds grow faster
Towards the determination that you lack

Your next step is a chance you’re scared of taking
Don’t keep your wandering mind from what ain’t there

Don’t be afraid of what’s coming up
All that you own ain’t what you’ve got
Rising shadows in the twilight hours
Forgotten seeds of exotic flowers
Don’t be afraid of what’s coming up
All that you own ain’t what you’ve got
Rising shadows in the twilight hours
Forgotten seeds of exotic flowers

(Who would have thought you’d try again?)
Rising shadows in the twilight hours
Forgotten seeds of exotic flowers
Don’t be afraid of what’s coming up
(Who would have thought you’d try again?)
All that you own ain’t what you’ve got
Rising shadows in the twilight hours
Forgotten seeds of exotic flowers
Who would have thought you’d try again?
