I want to be there in the morning, I want to wake up by your side.
If I can make it back I’ll be there, if I can catch the early flight.
I’ll bring you dragon’s teeth from silver beaches, shells from Africa.
I’ll give you China dolls and silken shawls, orchids for your hair,
treasures drowned in sunken galleons, jewels from desert caves
when I get there.
We’ll see each other in the morning when the sun comes up
We’ll see each other in the morning when the sun comes up
in the morning
I’ll guard you from the monsters on the tv, from the pirates
in the corners of your dreams. I’ll keep you from the cold
and safe from trolls from the bad men while you play.
I’ll hunt for crocodiles and snakes with smiles I’ll keep them
far away from your innocence in all it’s wonder.
We’ll see each other in the morning when the sun comes up
We’ll see each other in the morning when the sun comes up
in the morning, in the morning, when the sun comes up
