The first of many lonely mornings I've had to face
I look out the window and I just say
I guess the world didn't stop for my broken heart
So I laid down on the couch instead
I couldn't face the night in that lonely bed
Last night I prayed the Lord, my soul to keep, then I cried myself to sleep
Clock still tickin', life goes on, radio still plays a song
But, Lord, this sun is blinding me as it wakes me from the dark
So sure life wouldn't go on without you
Nothing much for us to say, one last goodbye and you drove away
I watched your tail-lights as they faded in the dark
I guess the world didn't stop for my broken heart
And it takes all the strength I've got to stumble to the coffee pot
Last night I prayed the Lord, my soul to keep, then I cried myself to sleep
You call to see if I'm okay
As I try to put my scattered thoughts in place
So sure life wouldn't go on without you
But, Lord, this sun is blinding me as it wakes me from the dark
