When The Morning Comes Lyrics

I went downtown to see my lady
She stood me up and I stood there waiting
It'll be alright when the morning comes
Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair
I've got nowhere to go, I can go anywhere
It'll be alright when the morning comes

Just in passing, I'm not asking that you be anyone but you
But when you come home, try to come home alone
It's so much better with two

Now I'm out in the cold and I'm getting old
Standing here waiting on you
It'll be alright when the morning comes

When the morning comes

When the morning comes

Just in passing, I'm not asking that you be anyone but you
When you come home try to come home alone
It's so much better with two

Now I'm out in the cold and I'm getting old
Standing here waiting on you
It'll be alright when the morning comes

It'll be alright when the morning comes

Cover art for When The Morning Comes lyrics by Hall and Oates

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.

The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"

The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
