Morning Came Too Soon Lyrics

We went out for a meal
To a restaurant she found
Walked back holding hands
Through a quiet part of town
Her place was hung with scarves
And lit by tiny lights
Country music on the player
She said, "Won′t you stay the night?"

And morning came too soon
Morning came too soon
Morning came too soon

We kissed, it seemed like hours
On her lover's chair
Her hands made expeditions
Through my tangled hair
Her neck was doused in musk
Its skin sweet to my tongue
I held her in my arms
As in my arms she clung

And morning came too soon
Morning came too soon
Morning came too soon

We undressed each other gently
With care and emphasis
And each uncovered piece of skin
Was welcomed by a kiss
Her blouse and pencil skirt
Fell tumbling to the ground
The country record ended
Our breath the only sound

And morning came too soon
Morning came too soon
Morning came too soon

Her bed was piled with pillows
And a blanket she had sewed
We ventured underneath
And slowly I unlocked her code
I worshipped her with hands
With tongue and breath and song
The answering of her body
Told me where to linger long

And morning came too soon
Morning came too soon
Morning came too soon

There was rhythm in the night
There was magic in the room
She drew herself on top
Her eyes shone like the moon
Her loving mouth, her sensuous hands
And all that they expressed
But here I draw the veil
You must imagine all the rest

We lay in holy silence
Our bodies still entwined
She thought she′d found her love of loves
And I thought I'd found mine
This folly would be shattered
But not while we remained
Under night's enchantment
Safe in darkness′ domain

And morning came too soon
Morning came too soon
Morning came too soon
Morning came too soon
Morning came too soon
Morning came too soon
