keaton henson- in the morning

finn fell asleep on me slow dancing in the kitchen to this song. he hasn't done that in a long time. listening on repeat with a heavy toddler dreaming on my shoulder. his body calm and warm.

"I know every mark on your hand"     my most favorite lyric.

                                                           

Empty pack of cigarettes by the bed
You woke up and looked at me and you said,
"Hey, Keaton, is it morning yet?"
No, we have a couple hours left
And god knows what will happen then

And there may be questions in your head
As a new day is dawning
Like what things for us lie ahead
But woman, I will see you in the morning
And woman, I will see you in the morning

And I know every mark on your hand
Perhaps you'd like me more if I was still in a band
But you know the crowds unsettle me
These days I'd play for free
Baby, please don't look at me
Like that

And there may be questions in your head
As a new day is dawning
Like what things for us lie ahead
And woman, I will see you in the morning
Oh woman, I will see you in the morning
Oh woman, I will see you in the morning

Morning
