Blue Morning Light

I lay on my side and stare out the window
Silently watch the moving shadows
Familiar sounds float through the air
And return me to the here and now
The blue morning light always draws me
Into a world that’s make-believe
Familiar sounds float through the air
And return me to the here and now
You should be laying here beside me
With your arms around me, but you’re gone, babe, you’re gone
Now all I have are these cold, cold sheets
And the dog laying at my feet
So, I stay on my side and stare out the window
Keep taking in the morning shadows
As familiar sounds float through the air
And return me to the here and now
You should be laying here beside me
Your arms around me, but you’re gone, babe, you’re gone
Now all I have are these cold, cold sheets
And the dog laying at my feet
And the blue morning light has faded to yellow
And it’s my mind that’s in the shadows
But familiar sounds float through the air
And return me to the here and now
Familiar sounds, they float through the air
And return me to the here and now

Better Days

I know just how it feels,
yeah, I’ve been there before
I thought I could get no lower
then I found another floor
I know just how it feels
when you’re on your own
Surrounded by well-meaning people
but feeling so alone
But there are better days
coming right for you
Yeah there are better days
I know that you’ll get through
I know just how it feels
to have no sunshine in your day
The heaviness descends upon you
and those clouds won’t go away
Yeah I know just how it feels
your mind always playing games
when second-guessing becomes the norm
and you feel slightly insane
But there are better days
coming right for you
Yeah there are better days
know that you’ll get through
And when those better days come
you know you can start anew
Bring on those better days
they’re coming right for you
There will be better days for you

I like to sleep on the right side of bed
so, when I get up I can face the west
and that means that the sun and its rays
will fall on my back instead of my face
Yeah, I like to sleep and rise on the right side of bed
I like to start the day eating the same things
for my breakfast, no, I don’t like to change
though I have been known to drink up
an OJ instead of a coffee and eat fruit in season
It’s better that way
Some things I really don’t like to change
Some things are better when they stay the same
I like to see it as the glass half full
not half empty, no I tend to choose
to always look for the best I can see
in those around me but sometimes
it can be my undoing - that glass half full
Oh, but that’s just what I do
Yeah maybe you can do it do
Some things I really don’t like to change
Some things are better when they stay the same
