Touch Me in the Morning

Touch Me in the Morning - Ruth Brown (露絲·布朗)

Touch me

In the morning

Then just walk away

We don't

Have tomorrow

But we had yesterday

Wasn't it me who said

That nothin' good's gonna last forever

And wasn't it me who said

Let's be glad for the time together

Must've been hard to tell me

That you've given all you had to give

I can understand your feelin' that way

Ev'rybody's got their life to live

Well I can say goodbye

In the cold morning light

But I can't watch love die

In the warmth of the night

If I've got to be strong

Don't you know I need to have tonight

When you're gone 'till you go

I need to just lie here

And think about

The last time that you

Touch me in the morning

Then just close the door

Leave me

As you found me

Empty like before

Wasn't it yesterday

We used to laugh at the wind behind us

Didn't we run away and hope

That time wouldn't try to find us

Didn't we take each other

To a place where no one's ever been

Yeah I really need you near me tonight

'Cause you'll never take me there again

Let me watch you go

With the sun in my eyes

We've seen how love can grow

Now we'll see how it dies

If I've got to be strong

Don't you know I need to have tonight

When you're gone

'Till you go I need to just lie here

And remember

The last time that you touch me

In the morning

Then just walk away

We don't have tomorrow

But we had yesterday

Touch me in the morning

Love and then just walk away

We don't have tomorrow

But we had yesterday

Touch me in the morning

Then just close the door

Leave me as you found me

Empty like before

Touch me in the morning

Then walk away

We don't have tomorrow

But we had yesterday

Touch me in the morning

Love and then just walk away

We don't have tomorrow

But we had yesterday

Walk away

Leaving like follow me

Touch me in the morning

Then just walk away

Touch me in the morning

Then just walk away

We don't have tomorrow

But we had yesterday

Touch me in the morning

Love and just walk away

We don't have tomorrow

But we had yesterday

Touch me in the morning

Then just walk away

Walk away

Ohhh

Walk away

Touch me

Touch me

Touch me

Touch me

Then walk away

Just walk away

Ohhh

Touch me

Then just walk away

We don't have tomorrow

But we have yesterday

Ohhh

Touch me

Touch me in the morning

Touch me

Touch me

In the morning
