Tell Me in the Morning Lyrics


speak about Greenly
now that she's gone
take my time when I go to bed
and I sleep, Lord
I'm getting over
rolling over
I said can you just wait
to tell me in the morning?slow it down
slow it down
lay it low
save it for the morningI know that you would like
like to change me
make me softer
tune your voice like a baby
I'm using caution
bet you wanted
I wish you could wait
to tell me in the morningslow it down

slow it down
lay it low
save it for the morningI shouted questions
like a fierce fire
you tried to take me by the arm
into the light
I'm almost over
rolling over
I said could you just wait
to tell me in the morning?slow it down
slow it down
lay it low
save it for the morningand i'll tell you one more thing
I confess to self deception
pull the lock and pry it open
they're pretending to be stolen
I am my own thief in the nightstruck up for mnay years
just to get here
between the humility
and be my own teacher
I guess it backfired
'cause my motive
was just to take and
never kept that way I guessslow it down
slow it down
lay it low
save it for the morningI shouted questions
like a fierce fire
you tried to take me into your arms and lead me to the light
I'm almost over
rolling over
I said could you just wait
to tell me in the morning?slwo it down
slow it down
lay it low
save it for the moringand I'll tell you one more thing
I confess to self deception
pull the lock and pry it open
they're pretending to be stolen
and I am my own thief in the night

Cold War Kids are an indie rock band from Fullerton, California, USA. The band members are Nathan Willett (lead vocals, piano, guitar), Jonnie Russell (guitar, vocals, percussion), Matt Maust (bass guitar) and Matt Aveiro (drums). According to Songfacts, Matt Maust came up with the band's name. He was inspired by a trip to Eastern Europe where he came across a big park where they'd dumped statues that had been removed after Communism fell. Within the park he found a playground and being in that environment the phrase 'Cold War Kids' popped into his head.

The band started in historic downtown Fullerton in Jonnie's apartment above the restaurant Mulberry St. (their first EP title) in 2004. They are avid supporters of unsigned talent such as the band Electric Furs. They have toured in support of Two Gallants, Tapes 'n Tapes, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Sound Team, Muse and The White Stripes. Their music is heavily inspired by artists such as Jeff Buckley, Bob Dylan, Velvet Underground and Johnny Segment. Recently they starred in an MTV2 special titled "Cold War Kids Takeover!" They appeared on Soccer AM and were announced as Norwich City F.C. Fans. They were going to tour with The White Stripes for their Icky Thump tour, but The White Stripes had to cancel.

In 2007, they contributed to OKX, a tribute to the 10-year-old Radiohead album OK Computer, recording their version of the track "Electioneering." Nathan Willett identified Radiohead and the album as a strong influence, saying, "It's the only album that I feel compelled to say way too grandiose things about, that rock journalists have already said plenty: Like that OK Computer is the single most important album to be released during my youth and that it was a rite of passage. But that really is the truth and I have never had an emotional connection with an album quite like I have with this one."

He also explained why the band chose to cover "Electioneering" from the album: "I'm not saying 'Electioneering' is the best song on the album, but (still, a big claim!) it's certainly the most badass. It's lyrically everything we want to do - bursts of concrete imagery."
