Kiss Me in the Morning
Mr. Blotto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Look at how it's storming.
Take some time, call in sick and stay
And kiss me in the morning.
You and I run through a lifetime seeing many rainy days along the way.
And if this weather doesn′t get any
Better we may have to stay in bed all day.
All in all it's such a lovely day for barefoot in the garden.
If getting wet is the only price we pay I'd say that it′s a bargain.
In this life better take it as it
Comes ′cause you never get a warning.
I only want to hold you,hold you in my arms
And let you kiss me in the morning.
Through it all, it's a hard hard lifetime.
Sometimes I feel it shaking in my bones.
But if we live we′re never gonna need another.
And if we die we'll never be alone...
Oh babe in another time or place
Kiss me in the morning.
Because I′m longing to see your face
Come on, kiss me in the morning.
In this life you got to take it as it
Comes because you never get a warning.
I only want to hold you,
Hold you in my arms,
And let you kiss me in the morning...
