Morning Light Lyrics


The American situation
Is on our minds again
And I don't know if I've been here before
We would try to go to sleep
But we're running around in circles
For fear of falling down we can't get upAnd I wait for the morning light
To burn away the slings and arrows
flying through the night
And I am home
But I am not a man
They will try to take the things
That you can't hold down with your hands
So hold them downA war across an ocean
Is like a dream from which you've woken
If you don't like what you see
then go to sleep
But the smell of smoke is in your hair
And your heavy heart is always there

It's always there
It's always there
It's always thereAnd I wait for the morning light
To burn away the slings and arrows
flying through the night
And I am home
But I am not a man
They will try to take your crown
If you can't hold it downIn the darkness of the winter time
I will try to take you home
In the long grass of evening timeAnd I wait for the morning light
To burn away the slings and arrows
flying through the night
And we must wait for this to pass us by
And I will try to close my eyes
I will try to close my eyesAnd I wait for the morning light
To burn away the slings and arrows
flying through the night
And I am home
But I am not a man
I will try to take you home
If you can't hold it down
So hold it down
So hold it down
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Eskimo Joe is alt-rock band from Fremantle, Western Australia comprising Kavyen Temperley (bass/vocals), Joel Quartermain (guitar/drums) and Stuart MacLeod (guitar)
The group initally formed to compete in the National Campus Band Competition in 1997. Temperley and Quartermain were already in a band at the time, Freud's Pillow, but had met with little success and asked Temperley's childhood friend MacLeod to form a new band, which became Eskimo Joe. The band ended up winning the competition prize: a slot at the 1997 Livid Festival and a session in a studio to record their first EP, Sweater.
