I begin to fall
You run me off
I begin to fall into your heart
I belong

In the morning sun, I will belong
In the morning sun, I will belong
I belong

In the morning sun, I call you off
In the morning sun, I call you off
I begin to fall
You run me off
I begin to fall into your heart
I belong
I belong
In the morning sun, I will belong
In the morning sun, I will belong

Emptiness
The lyrics of Herndon Holly's song Morning Sun speak of a person's longing for belongingness and love. The first few lines speak of someone who is falling for another person, but the other person seems to be pushing them away. Despite the rejection, the person still falls deeper into the other person's heart.
The chorus speaks of the person's desire to belong and find their place in the world. The morning sun serves as a metaphor for new beginnings, hope, and positivity. The repetition of the phrase "I belong" emphasizes the person's need for acceptance and connection.
Towards the end of the song, the lyrics shift to talk about emptiness. This could indicate the person's feelings of loneliness and despair when they are not able to find the love and belongingness they seek. The repetition of the word "emptiness" drives home this emotion.
Overall, the song conveys a message of hopelessness and longing for love and acceptance. The yearning for connection and to be part of something is a relatable feeling that many people have experienced.
