Darling when you wake up in the morning
Don’t forget that I forgot to pray
So don’t go thinking evil
Thoughts about me
Today could be the end
Of all my days
You know you’re a pretty little angel
I don’t know how you wound up
In my bed
You should have carried on
With a good man’s heart
There are places that you’re
Not supposed to tread
So darling when you wake up
In the morning
I hope that you don’t begrudge me none
Because I don’t belong
On the pedestal that you built
And that is why
I had to up and run
Honey I’m not looking for a pardon
And I’m not one
To ask for a reprieve
I only ask you don’t
Spend your time guessing
What it was that made me up and leave
It comes down to a million little pieces
That add up to a big thing in my mind
I go to bed dreaming of the good man
That I hope one day you will find
