'Til the Morning
Another long night
Has come and gone
She's feeling unfinished
He's feeling forlorn
But she just can't see that
And he doesn't know
That the sorrow between them divides them
Chorus
And he stays on his side
And she stays on her side
And it stays that way 'til the morning
'Til the morning
She stifles her tears
He suffers his pride
And it stays that way 'til the morning
The energy's high
But the fan's not blowing
It's too long a distance
For him to be going
His pockets are empty
And there's a numbness inside
He's gotten so damned good at hiding
Chorus
And he stays on his side
And she stays on her side
And it stays that way 'til the morning
'Til the morning
She swallows her tears
He suffers his pride
And it stays that way 'til the morning
She lies on her back
Counting tiles on the ceiling
The numbness replaces
The pain he is feeling
But she doesn't know that
And he just can't see
What a harbor there is for the asking
Chorus
And he stays on his side
And she stays on her side
And it stays that way 'til the morning
'Til the morning
She stifles her tears
He suffers his pride
And it stays that way 'til the morning
