It's Just Another Morning Here Lyrics - From A Distance - Nanci Griffith

The telephone is ringin' in the middle of the night 

And I pull the bed clothes higher 

Will it stop calling out if I turn on the light? 

I'm afraid of these shadows here 

'Cause my past is truly frightening 

And I'm afraid of the warmth in the down 

Of a feathered heart in flight 

It's just another morning here 

(It's morning) 

It's just another morning here 

It's just another morning here 

(It's morning) 

And it's a miracle and it comes around 

Every day of the year 

Oh, the neighbors scream and their baby cries 

And I'm hiding in the corner 

Oh, I won't be them pray, I won't be them one day 

And maybe it's just the breath of August 

So hot upon my shoulder 

Or an open window for a winged heart 

To fly away 

It's just another morning here 

(It's morning) 

It's just another morning here 

It's just another morning here 

(It's morning) 

And it's a miracle and it comes around 

Every day of the year 

The telephone is ringin' in the middle of the night 

And I pull the bed clothes higher 

Will it stop calling out if I turn on the light? 

I'm afraid of these shadows here 

'Cause my past is truly frightening 

And I'm afraid of the warmth in the down 

Of a feathered heart in flight 

It's just another morning here 

(It's morning) 

It's just another morning here 

It's just another morning here 

(It's morning) 

And it's a miracle and it comes around 

Every day of the year 

It's just another morning here 

(It's morning) 

It's just another morning here 

It's just another morning here 

(It's morning) 

It's just another morning here 

It's just another morning here 

(It's morning) 

It's just another morning here
