Sailship - The Morning Light

This morning, sunlight broke through my window
I watched it fracture apart overhead
I saw the colors dance straight up my wall
To the ceiling above my bed
And then the reds split up to a pair of lips
And the yellows made your hair
Then your eyes... darlin’, oh, your eyes...
And now you’re everywhere

In the morning light
I miss you more than words can say

So if I could prove it to you, I would
I’d find a way to paint me up there next to you
Before the sun decides to hide your bright blue eyes back behind my bed
I fell asleep, but I woke up to you instead

With your perfection gleaming above me
In the light brought in with the dawn
I’ll let the day pass by as you climb on down
And you lay there with me, without a sound, but In the morning light
I miss you more than words can say
But here I’m trying to sing them anyway

So if I could prove it to you, I would,
I’d find a way to paint me up there next to you
Before the sun decides to hide your bright blue eyes back behind my bed
I fell asleep, but I woke up to you instead

In the light, as the room glows softly with your grace
I will open the door to you
And set out in the world with my heart ablaze, anew

So if I could prove it to you, I would
I’d find a way to paint me up there next to you
Before the sun decides to hide your bright blue eyes back behind my bed
I fell asleep, but I woke up to you instead
