Morning Light
Goldpark Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She's headed for the city
A new life on her mind
I asked her do you love me
She said good love is hard to find
Of all the complications we faced
Of all the things we new we shouldn't say
It cut me to the bone when you said I'm gone
But won't you wait
Before you go
Into the morning light
Where you hide away
When you're feeling low
And don't you know
We'll never lose this fight
Even if we lose the light
I won't let go
V2:
It's as if you never knew me
Six months down the line
When I saw you at that movie
Holding on to some other guy
And I hope you know
Just how hard it's been
To keep myself from losing my mind
But before you go
Just answer me this
How come you never gave me a reason why
You said goodbye
Oh
Chorus
V3:
Well I don't know where I'm going
But I know it's not with you
There's a couple doors that I left open
Still got some growing up to do
In “Morning Light,” Goldpark delves into the complexities of a relationship that has come to an end. The song is about a woman who is leaving for the city with a new life in mind, and the man she is leaving behind is trying to convince her to stay. The lyrics convey the pain and struggle of a relationship that has fallen apart, yet the singer refuses to give up on love.
The first verse sets up the story by revealing the woman's desire for a new life in the city. The singer asks her if she loves him, but her response implies that she doesn't love him enough to stay. The man is hurt by her departure, especially because there were complications in their relationship that they knew shouldn't be talked about. The woman's decision to leave without any explanation is what cuts him to the bone.
In the chorus, the singer is pleading with her to stay a little longer, to wait before heading into the morning light. He tells her they will never lose the fight, and even if they lose the light, he won't let go. The entire song is an emotional tug-of-war between the man's desire to keep the relationship alive and the woman's need for a new beginning. The third verse underscores this struggle by expressing the man's resolve to move on with his life and grow up, even if it means leaving the door open to possibilities.

I haven't stopped listening to this in 2 days. And I don't ever dance through the house, but I have been dancing through the house 80's movie style anytime I get up from my office chair. I needed this good energy in my life so much this year. Thanks for doing what you do, guys!
