You might wake up some morning
To the sound of something moving past your window in the wind

Night and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon
And under the sun

And when the morning light comes streaming in
You'll get up and do it again

My baby takes the morning train.
He works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again
To find me waiting for him.

--Remembered from top 40 radio in the 1970s.

You bring a tear of joy to my eyes

When suppertime came, the old cook came on deck,
Sayin', "Fellas, it's too rough to feed ya."
At 7 p.m. the main hatchway gave in.
He said, "Fellas, it's been good to know ya!"

--"Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald," Gordon Lightfoot

When a Broadway baby says "Good night,"
It's early in the morning.
Manhattan babies don't sleep tight,
Until the dawn:
Good night, baby,
Good night,
Milkman's on his way.

Lullaby of Broadway - sung by The Andrews Sisters among others

It's 3 am.
I must be lonely.

You know I never liked the party life,
Up all night, lovely wife,
You have a lovely wife.

Good morning starshine
The earth says hello
You twinkle above us
We twinkle below

Morning Morgantown
Buy your dreams a dollar down

Joni Mitchell

Morning has broken like the first morning;
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird.

--"Morning Has Broken," Cat Stevens (now Yusuf Islam) sings it in my head.

Ellen (nursescrubs) said...

Got no diamond,
Got no pearl
Still I think I'm a lucky girl
I got the sun in the morning
And the moon at night.

(from "Annie Get Your Gun", by Irving Berlin)

HoosierNan said...

On the first day in August
I want to wake up by your side
After sleeping with you
On the last night in July.

--Carole King

How the hell can a person
Go to work in the morning
Come home in the evening
And have nothing to say?

Angel From Montgomery
John Prine

Heather Booth said...

Good mornin',
Good mornin'!
We've talked the whole night through.
Good mornin',
Good mornin' to you.

In the evening...
When the day is done I'm looking for a woman, but the girl don't come.
So don't let her play you for a fool.
She don't show no pity baby.
She don't make no rules.

Led Zeppelin
