Sunday Morning Lyrics

Sunday morning
We were lying in bed, just the two of us under cover, undercover
With no warniing you suddenly became my lover
I've been waiting so very long for you to say it to me, say it to me
I've been skating, skating on thin ice if I don't agree

I know you're the one for me but it took me by surprise

[prechorus]
If I say it back to you, I can't look you in the eye
I don't want to lose you, I don't want to confuse you
I guess this is my cue, to give you my reply

[chorus]
And you killed it, you killed it
You killed it with I love you
And you killed it, you killed it
You killed it with I love you
And you killed with I love you
what am I supposed to say back to you
You killed it with I love you

And I'm sorry
only three little words I seem to be so scared of
so please show me how to get these words
off the tip of my tongue and out of my mind

I know you're the one for me but it took me by surprise.

If I say it back to you, I can't look you in the eye
I don't want to lose you, I don't want to confuse you
I guess this is my cue, to give you my reply

[prechorus]

[chorus]

I have been thinkg about what you said
three little words running round in my head
there's no one else that I'd rather be next to
I guess what I'm trying to say is I love you.

[chorus] x2

Sunday morning 
We were lying in bed, just the two of us under cover, undercover 
With no warniing you suddenly became my lover 
I've been waiting so very long for you to say it to me, say it to me 
I've been skating, skating on thin ice if I don't agree

I know you're the one for me but it took me by surprise

[prechorus] 
If I say it back to you, I can't look you in the eye 
I don't want to lose you, I don't want to confuse you 
I guess this is my cue, to give you my reply

[chorus] 
And you killed it, you killed it 
You killed it with I love you 
And you killed it, you killed it 
You killed it with I love you 
And you killed with I love you 
what am I supposed to say back to you 
You killed it with I love you

And I'm sorry 
only three little words I seem to be so scared of 
so please show me how to get these words 
off the tip of my tongue and out of my mind

I know you're the one for me but it took me by surprise.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I looove this song! So raw, so cool, so real. It's basically about these two lovers who seemed to just enjoy eachother and not really commiting. Then a sunday morning he tells her that he loves he - BAMM, and he killed it. It as in their relaxed and undifficult so called "relationship". So she starts wondering and thinking, and she has no clue what to say back to him - well, that's untill she realizes that she loves him too.

This is definately what i would call a hot song(:
