Morning Light
Rachel Goodrich Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Baby, kept me up all night, he kept me up all night
And I gotta get going, I gotta get going
I gotta get going before the morning light
I wasn't up for games of who's wrong or right
Baby made me put up a fight, he kept me up all night
And I gotta get going, I gotta get going
Before the morning light
I gotta wrap up my things and I'm ready to leave tonight
Oh, tonight
I gotta wrap things up and I'm ready to go
And it seems to me, honey, you just need
Something to hold on to, maybe something to believe
And it's been too many times you've been telling me
I broke your heart
You rub it in my face and get beneath my bones
I don't got no regrets, oh, well, I'm hanging alone
And I gotta get going, I gotta get going
I gotta get going back on to my home
You got a ways to go 'til I can call you a friend
I got a feeling I know that you ain't my man
Well, I gotta get going, I gotta get going
I gotta get going before the morning light
Before the morning light
I gotta wrap up my things and I'm ready to leave tonight
Whoa, tonight
I gotta wrap things up and I'm ready to go
And it seems to me, honey, you just need
Something to hold on to, maybe something to believe
And it's been too many times you've been telling me
I broke your heart, oh, I broke your heart
In "Morning Light," Rachel Goodrich sings about a person who has kept her up all night, and she's tired of the drama and needs to leave before the morning light. She feels like it's not worth getting into a game of who's right or wrong, and she needs to do what's best for her. She sings about someone who needs something to hold onto, something to believe in, and it's been too many times they've accused her of breaking their heart. She says she doesn't have any regrets, but rather than dwelling on the past, she needs to move on with her life.
The song seems to be about a relationship that isn't working out, and Rachel is tired of trying to make it work. She acknowledges that the other person seems to need something more than she can give, and she's not willing to keep trying to be there for them. She's fed up with the constant accusations and doesn't want to deal with it anymore. She's firm in her decision to leave before the morning light and start fresh for her own sake.
Overall, "Morning Light" is a song about taking control of your life and leaving behind what doesn't serve you. It's about setting boundaries and doing what's best for yourself, even if it means leaving someone behind.
