Morning Light

Wrote your name in an old oak tree
Carved those letters right next to mine
Back then I was dreaming of forever
But some ties they weren’t made to bind, no no
Don’t worry darlin now you’ll be sleeping
When I slip away in the middle of the night
I’ll say a prayer that you’ll find freedom
When I’m no longer by your side, oh oh
Oh my love, oh my darling
Nothing I can do to make this right
I know we said for worse or for better
But it’s better that I’m gone by the morning light
Never meant to unlove you
Never thought I’d feel this way
Breaks my heart, breaks it right in two
Never wanted to cause you pain, no no
Oh my love, oh my darling
Nothing I can do to make this right
I know we said for worse or for better
But it’s better that I’m gone, better that I’m gone
Oh my love, oh my darling
Nothing I can do to make this right
I know we said for worse or for better
But it’s better that I’m gone by the morning light
It’s better that I’m gone by the morning light
