Why Should I Weep For the Morning

Tonight I will dance like a child under the moon
and fill my lungs with the silver autumn air
I will breathe deep until my soul is shattered
and I will leave all the pieces lying there

Why should I weep for the morning?
I don't know what tomorrow will bring

Tonight I will ache with the purest of joys
that sends me crumbling, stumbling to my knees
I will rejoice in the weakness of my fall
and the redemption your love has wrought in me

Why should I weep for the morning?
I don't know what tomorrow will bring

Tonight I will tear this veil from my eyes
and open them wide and newborn in the light
I will awake in the innocent tomorrow
After kissing every lonely star goodnight

Why should I weep for the morning?
I don't know what tomorrow will bring
