In The Morning
Soulsavers and Dаvе Gаhаn Lyrics

The leaves are falling, it's in your nature
The changing of seasons and cycles of life are out of our control, just like how leaves falling off trees is a natural process.

I'm counting all the sticks left on the ground
The singer is paying close attention to the smaller details in their surroundings, perhaps as a way to distract from their worries or anxieties.

Early this morning, when I tried to wake ya
The singer was attempting to rouse the person they're addressing from sleep, indicating they've been together for some time.

You wasn't making any kind of sounds
The person they're trying to wake didn't respond or show any sign of consciousness.

Why can't you hear me?
The artist is feeling a sense of frustration and helplessness towards the person they're trying to communicate with.

Why can't you feel me?
The singer is longing for a deeper emotional connection with the person they're addressing, one that goes beyond just physical presence.

Was there a message that I'm not getting
The singer is questioning whether there's something they're missing in their attempts to connect and communicate with the other person.

Do you think that I am lost or am I found
The artist is asking the other person how they perceive the connection between them, and perhaps themselves in general.

Just after midnight, when I woke up sweating
The artist is suggesting they had a nightmare or a moment of intense anxiety in the middle of the night.

I was dreaming you were right here with me now
Despite the distress, the artist finds comfort and solace in the idea of being close to the person they're addressing.

Oh, why can't you hear me
The singer is repeating their frustration and longing from earlier in the song.

Why don't you hear me
Repeating the previous line, the artist is emphasizing their desperation and confusion in trying to connect with the other person.

I am lost, I am lost here
The singer is feeling lost and alone in their attempts to forge a meaningful connection with the other person.

I'm lost here now
This statement emphasizes the present tense and immediacy of the singer's feelings of confusion and disorientation.

So I am nothing if I'm not with you
The singer feels that their identity and sense of self is inextricably tied to the relationship with the other person.

In the morning, we'll forget this night somehow
Despite the turmoil of the previous night, the artist believes things will improve and they'll be able to move on.
