"Morning" words and music by Frank Hogans

performed by Frank Hogans

If I stand right still in this bright sunrise,

My silent shadow shields your eyes.

I can let you sleep one more little while,

If I don't give myself away.

Sheets and pillows all askew;

To fix them would just spoil the view.

To touch the satin-smooth of you,

Would give myself away.

Sometimes I wish it were you
inside of me.

We'd fly to my heart-rocket's apogee.

We would skip across the sky,

Shed this shoe-horned destiny.

Stay with me,

Surrender to the day,

Maybe give yourself away...

I stand here watching over you

Something I was born to do.

All I ever wanted to...

Was give myself away.

Those words I use so sparingly

Demand I choose them carefully.

Seems like they're always daring me

To give myself away.

Just how deep, how much,

you'll never know.

The murky depths that feelings sometimes go.

They may sink below the surface, and slowly disappear,

But my love is crystal clear.

My love,

I'd best be watching

what I say,

I could give myself away.

In the glowing, flowing morning light

My chances drifting out of sight

I will try with all my might..

To give myself away.
