Lyrics

Morning Don't Come
Words and music by Vikki Lee

THE NIGHTINGALE SINGS HER SONG
THE CRICKETS HUM ALONG
THIS SLEEPY WORLD IS SUCH A LOVELY PLACE
AS I LAY AND MEMORIZE HIS FACE
IN TOMORROW'S LIGHT OF DAY
THERE'S NOTHIN' LEFT TO DO BUT SIT AND WAIT
UNTIL THE MOONLIGHT THROUGH THE TREES
BRINGS HIM BACK TO ME

MORNIN' DON''T COME
MIDNIGHT PULL YOUR CURTAIN ROUND
I DON'T WANT MY DARLIN' ONE TO BE LEAVIN'
MORNIN' DON'T COME
BABY'S GOT HIS LOVELIGHT ON
AND THAT'S THE ONLY LIGHT I'LL BE NEEDIN'

I'LL BE BLUER THEN THE SKY
WHEN THE DAWN BRINGS HIS GOODBYE
SO MILKY WAY PLEASE HIDE THE SUN
DON'T LET TOMORROW COME

MORNIN' DON'T COME
MIDNIGHT PULL YOUR CURTAIN ROUND
I DON'T WANT MY DARLIN' ONE TO BE LEAVIN'
MORNIN' DON'T COME
BABY'S GOT HIS LOVELIGHT ON
AND THAT'S THE ONLY LIGHT I'LL BE NEEDIN'

PLEASE LET ME HAVE HIS LOVE FOR THE KEEPIN'
