Morning
Cheridomingo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)

Morning my, on a rise
Curtains breathing in you love me, (hey, hey) you love me (hey, hey)
Morning my, on a rise
Curtains breathing in you love me, (hey, hey) you love me (hey, hey)
How could you stand, how could you stand
Hearing the sun and the blacktop light up?
How could you stand, how could you stand
Action for a friend is the last thing you wish?

Now you've got somewhere to be, but
Canceling your things, just
There for what somebody needs

Morning my, on a rise
Curtains breathing in you love me, (hey, hey) you love me (hey, hey)
Morning my, on a rise
Curtains breathing in you love me, (hey, hey) you love me (hey, hey)

Present tense, linen dance
Drops of morning dew say, "Honey, (hey, hey) help somebody" (hey, hey)
Present tense, linen dance
Drops of morning dew say, "Honey, (hey, hey) help somebody" (hey, hey)

How could you stand, how could you stand
Hearing the sun and the blacktop light up?
How could you stand how could you stand
Action for a friend is the last thing you wish?

Now you've got somewhere to be, but
Canceling your things, just
There for what somebody needs

Morning my, on a rise
Curtains breathing in you love me, (hey, hey) you love me (hey, hey)
Morning my, on a rise
Curtains breathing in you love me, (hey, hey) you love me (hey, hey)

Present tense, linen dance
Drops of morning dew say, "Honey, (hey, hey) help somebody" (hey, hey)
Present tense, linen dance
Drops of morning dew say, "Honey, (hey, hey) help somebody" (hey, hey)

Caught in a round against my want to go down
Caught in a round against my want to go down




Caught in a round against my want to go down
Caught in a round against my want to go down

The repeated phrase "Morning my, on a rise, curtains breathing in you love me" suggests a feeling of awakening and the gentle movement of the curtains symbolizes the presence of love.

The line "Action for a friend is the last thing you wish" suggests that the singer may feel a reluctance or resistance to fulfilling obligations towards friends or loved ones. However, there is also a sense of redemption as the lyrics mention the need to "help somebody" and being present for what others need.
