Morning Streets Lyrics - Twelve Mondays - Ari Hest

London woke me up 

From a comfortable sleep 

With the screech of a tire 

And a monotonous beep 

I pulled back on the blinds 

And took a one-eyed peak outside 

The sun was catching a ride 

On an innocuous cloud 

Out on the morning streets 

The Friday late-night crowd 

Heading home from a night 

Of tasteless jokes and alcohol 

I am aware that I haven't been here for long 

I am aware that I haven't been here for long 

I don't feel the need to call you up 

I'm good 

I decided to walk 

In the direction of north 

Where I saw two kites there 

Dancing back and forth 

Never knowing where next 

They would blow off to or how long they'd fly 

And after hitting the park 

I continued on 

To a bank where 

The machine said I was overdrawn 

By a hundred or two 

Doesn't worry me like it used to 

I am aware that I haven't been here for long 

I am aware that I haven't been here for long 

I don't feel the need to call you up 

Wouldn't want to go and interrupt 

I don't feel the need to call you up 

I'm good 

I am aware that I haven't been here for long 

But this moment is rare, I want it stay so long 

I don't feel the need to call you up 

Wouldn't want to go and interrupt 

I don't feel the need to call you up 

I'm good
