At Break Of Day Lyrics - Singles - Bonnie Prince Billy

i know the suns about to come up 

i close my eyes anyway 

my mouth is dry and the sheets are cold 

and will be still come break of day 

you called me up just to surprise me 

to hear my voice, see what i had to say 

i only whispered then hung up 

i whispered, "wait till break of day." 

at the break of day im ending all of it 

and so dont say youve had a ball 

dawn is mine but i will share it 

with whatever bird will wear it 

on her body bare and pink 

now what do you think of break of day? 

i locked my door, i should unlock it 

what if you should come this way? 

and in and have a drink and dancing 

dancing till the break of day 

and then to bed we danced towards 

and tiredly kiss and roll in hay 

but waking in the evening i see 

you left after break of day 

at the break of day im ending all of it 

and so dont say youve had a ball 

dawn is mine but i will share it 

with whatever bird will wear it 

on her body bare and pink 

now what do you think of break of day? 

at the break of day im ending all of it 

and so dont say youve had a ball 

dawn is mine but i will share it 

with whatever bird will wear it 

on her body bare and pink 

now what do you think of break of day? 

i hate myself when im alone 

its just with you i feel ok 

so tomorrow youll feel sorrow 

when i am gone at break of day
