Sunrise - Petra Haden

You take away the breath I was keeping for sunrise

You appear and the morning looks drab in my eyes

And then again I’ll turn down love, having seen you again

Once more you’ll disappear, my morning put to shame

You take away the breath I was keeping for sunrise

You appear and the morning looks drab in my eyes

And then again I’ll turn down love, having seen you again

Once more you’ll disappear, my morning put to shame

Sometimes I fear that this will go on my life through

Each day I spend in an echoed vision of you

And then again I’ll turn down love, remembering your smile

My every day is spent, thinking of you all the while

The times I’ve let myself down, my heads spinning round

My eyes see only you

The chances I’ve lost, opportunities tossed

Away and into the blue

You take away the breath I was keeping for sunrise

You appear and the morning looks drab in my eyes

And then again I’ll turn down love, having seen you again

Once more you’ll disappear, my morning put to shame
