I woke up this morning The sun snuck through my blinds Dreams of sin rolling thru my mind So the world still spins, disappointed again My day begins The weight of my body sags beneath the sheets The dread of reality dances above me A kiss on the cheek from the man who loves me You're going to be late (a very important date) Clean the house, pay the bills Mundane routine so sickening familiar Care for the dogs, love your husband, love the Lord Smile & laugh and don't look so bored Remember to pray, my head hurts so Where to start Never enough time, and always too much As good as it gets is never enough Waiting for God to call His bluff Is this what the fuss was all about I want my refund Return me to the pink starburst The cotton clouds and crystal moons The emerald seas and the blue lagoon I want to dance again and fly so high I have almost forgotten Vacation from my soul, freedom from my mind I am late again, sad again, sick again Can't win for losing, I never win I woke up this morning And didn't want to. |
