Morning Song To Sally Lyrics - Jerry Jeff Walker

As the morning light stretched in across my bed 

I thought of you 

Remembering your laughing eyes and all we said 

I love you too 

As all my thoughts of you pass 'fore my face a thousand times 

The way they race my heart I cannot say it all in lines 

Our short time together lasts a long 

Makes me strong 

This two weeks came and went then you and I were gone 

Living on 

For it seems our love was destined to be caught in other nets 

But the love we held so brief, I'd chance again without regrets 

We kissed goodbye so smooth it turned me 'round 

Round and round 

But our cool sometimes returns to put me on 

Slightly down 

For each have things to do before our time alone is done 

But these thoughts of you here down the line prove our love has just begun 

Yes standing by the road has been my song before 

Much too long 

Now somehow I'm forced to see me there once more 

And that's this song 

For my waking thoughts of you are but extensions of dreams 

Without you here beside me I'll never know all that they mean 

So as morning light stretched in across my bed 

I thought of you 

Remembering your laughing eyes and all we said 

I love you too 

And as all my thoughts of you pass 'fore my face a thousand times 

The way they race my heart I cannot say it all in lines
