{LYRICS}
(Doot doot doot doot doot doot…
Doot doot doot doot doot doot…)
(In the mornin’…
When the first unconscious light reflects the night
And I lie in my bed, not yet sleepin’
I’ll remember other mornings
And the good times that we had
And the leavin’ that our hearts could not agree on
(Doot doot doot doot doot doot…
Doot doot doot doot doot doot…)
They say…)
They say…
It’s not constructive to look back on what you lost
(Back on what you lost…)
That to be a man (Be a man…)
You must keep movin’ forward
(Must keep movin’ forward…)
But in the early hours
When I find myself alone
I will look into my heart
And see you smilin’ through the dawn
And I’ll….
Remember other mornings
And the good times that we’ve had!
(And the leavin’ that our hearts could not agree on…)
(Doot doot doot doot doot doot…
Doot doot doot doot doot doot…
Doot doot doot doot doot doot…)
If towards the dawn
You wake as though escapin’ from a dream
(Doot doot doot doot doot doot…
Doot doot doot doot doot doot…)
And you reach for me
And realize it was no dream at all
(Doot doot doot doot doot doot…
Doot doot doot doot doot doot…)
Lay back softly
Don’t be frightened of your discontented sleep
It’s just the leavin’
That our hearts could not agree on
(Doot doot doot doot doot doot…
Doot doot doot doot doot doot…)
They say…)
They say…
It’s not constructive to look back on what you’ve lost
(Back on what you’ve lost…)
That to be a man (Be a man…)
You must keep movin’ forward
(Must keep movin’ forward…)
But in the early hours
When I find myself alone
I will look into my heart
And see you smilin’ through the dawn…!
And I’ll….
Remember other mornings
And the good times that we’ve had!
(And the leavin’, mmm, that our hearts could not agree on…)
(Doot doot doot doot doot doot…
Doot doot doot doot doot doot…)
(And the leavin’ that our hearts could not agree on…)
(Doot doot doot doot doot doot…
Doot doot doot doot doot doot…)
(Yes, the leavin’ that our hearts could not agree on…)
(Doot doot doot doot doot doot…
Doot doot doot doot doot doot…)
(Doot doot doot doot doot doot…
Doot doot doot doot doot doot…)
