Nanci Griffith - It's Just Another Morning Here

The telephone is ringin' in the middle of the night
I pull the bed clothes higher
Will it stop calling out if I turn out the light?
I'm afraid of these shadows here
Cuz my past is truly frightening
And I'm afraid of the warmth in the down
Of a feathered heart in flight

It's just another morning here (it's morning)
It's just another morning here
It's just another morning here (it's morning)
And it's a miracle and it comes around
Every day of the year

The neighbors scream and their baby cries
I'm hiding in the corner
I won't be them, pray I won't be them one day
Maybe it's just the breath of August
So hot upon my shoulders
Or the open window for the winged heart
To fly away

It's just another morning here (it's morning)
It's just another morning here
It's just another morning here (it's morning)
And it's a miracle and it comes around
Every day of the year

The telephone is ringin' in the middle of the night
I pull the bed clothes higher
Will it stop calling out if I turn out the light?
I'm afraid of these shadows here
Cuz my past is truly frightening
And I'm afraid of the warmth in the down
Of a feathered heart in flight

It's just another morning here (it's morning)
It's just another morning here
It's just another morning here (it's morning)
And it's a miracle and it comes around
Every day of the year

It's just another morning here (it's morning)
It's just another morning here
It's just another morning here (it's morning)
It's just another morning here
It's just another morning here (it's morning)
It's just another morning here
