Morning comes and there’s a light upon your shoulder
It’s too early to say what’s really on my mind
The sun at your eyes and your face looks so much older
Than I can remember from last night
Do I remember anything at all?

You say we burn and we burn without a fire
You say we’ll hold on, hold on until we expire

I picked you up from the same place where I left you
You had your work clothes on, only the maid could reveal you
We ran the belt again, oh that sound is so alarming
It is louder than our love, it is louder than we’ll ever be

Morning comes again and the light’s back on your shoulder
Travels through your hair from one side to the other
I’m no longer worried, I’m not going anywhere

You say we burn and we burn without a fire
You say we’ll hold on, hold on until we expire
You say we never get old, we get younger and younger
You say we’ll hold on, hold on until we expire
