Sunday Morning

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sunday morning
Brings the dawn in
It's just a restless feeling
By my side

Early dawning
Sunday morning
It's all the wasted years
So close behind

Watch out the world's behind you
There's always someone around you
Who will call
It's nothing at all

Sunday morning
And I'm falling
I've got {a} feeling
I don't want to know

Early dawning
Sunday morning
It's all the streets you've crossed
Not so long ago

Watch out the world's behind you
There's always someone around you
Who will call
It's nothing at all

Watch out the world's behind you
There's always someone around you
Who will call
It's nothing at all





Sunday morning

Overall Meaning

by Vanessa St. James & Lou Reed is a song that speaks to the feelings of restlessness and a desire to escape the past. The first verse acknowledges the dawn of a new day - Sunday morning - and the emotions that come with it. The singer confesses to a restless feeling that is by their side, fueling an inner turmoil that they can't quite shake.


The second verse delves deeper into the concept of wasted time and the past that still lingers. The early morning hours serve as a reminder of all the years that were spent in vain, with the memories of those times still too close for comfort. It's a reflective moment that's ultimately overshadowed with a sense of longing for something new, something different.


The chorus is a repeating reminder of the world around us, and that we're never truly alone. There's always someone out there who can call us back - whether it's to old memories or to something more meaningful. In the end, the hook reminds us that sometimes, it's nothing at all - that despite all the noise and chaos of the world, we can still find peace in the present moment.


Overall, Sunday Morning is a powerful ode to the complexities of the human experience. It's a song that speaks to our innermost desires, and the yearning for something more meaningful in a world that often feels chaotic and uncertain.
