When Morning Comes
The Sons Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Should arrive today
Or the one after tomorrow
The latest think next month
It's gonna be grand
All this golden greatness
A reward for your patience
And some good faith in advance
And while I'm pitching this shit
I'm actually believing it
When the caravan comes
When the good life arrives
You need to trust me on this
I'll need that credit for life
My mom told me this story
Of a shoe repair man
Who conned just everyone
He posed as a nobleman
Who had found treasures
That would arrive by camel train
Now who'd care to bridge the days?
And with the chance to cash in
They were eager to believe him
When the caravan comes
When the good life arrives
You have to trust me on this
I'll need that credit for life
Do you really believe in this?
Does it help with a steady fist?
All that you'd like to grasp
With a tighter clasp
Funny what life would make you do
If you weren't born with a silver spoon
When the caravan comes
When the good life arrives
You need to trust me on this




I'll need that credit
For life

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Sons' song "When Morning Comes" delve into themes of hope, anticipation, and the human tendency to believe in the promises of a better future. The song tells the story of someone eagerly awaiting a life-changing event, whether it be an arrival, an opportunity, or a stroke of luck. The singer, who seems to be the one making these promises, expresses their sincere belief in the positive outcome and asks for trust and credit in return.


The opening lines, "Should arrive today / Or the one after tomorrow / The latest think next month / It's gonna be grand," suggest a sense of anticipation and impatience. The singer is promising something great, something they believe will bring golden greatness and rewards for the listener's patience and faith. They pitch their idea or plan with such conviction that they admit to actually believing it themselves.


The lyrics then shift to recounting a story the singer's mom told about a shoe repair man who successfully conned people by posing as a nobleman who had found treasures that would arrive by camel train. This anecdote serves as a metaphor for the willingness of individuals to believe in something that appears promising, even if it seems too good to be true. The line, "And with the chance to cash in / They were eager to believe him," emphasizes the vulnerability and gullibility of people when presented with the prospect of a better life.


In the chorus, the singer continues to ask for trust, proclaiming that when the caravan comes and the good life arrives, they will need that credit for life. The repeated question, "Do you really believe in this?" challenges not only the listener's belief in the promises being made but also questions the effectiveness of relying on false hopes. The lyrics suggest that people may seek comfort or deal with the hardships of life by holding onto these promises, using them as a steady fist to navigate difficult circumstances.


Overall, "When Morning Comes" explores the human inclination to believe in the possibility of a better future while also shedding light on the sometimes deceptive nature of promises made.
