Morning Song For Sally Lyrics - Other Voices, Other Rooms - Nanci Griffith

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 

How the short time together lasts so long, makes me strong 

As 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 regret 

Yes, standing by the road has been my song 

Before, much too long but now somehow I'm forced 

To see me there once more and that's the song 

For my waking thoughts of you are but extensions of the dream 

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

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
