The morning after
Elliot Smith


I’m in love with the world,
Through the eyes of a girl,
Who’s still around the morning after.

We broke up a month ago,
When I grew up, I didn’t know
It’d be around the morning after.

It’s always been wait and see,
A happy day didn’t pay
Feel like shit the morning after.

But now I feel changed around,
And instead falling down,
I’m standing up the morning after.

Situations get fucked up
Turned around sooner or later

I could be another fool,
Or an exception to the rule
You tell me the morning after.

Crooked spin can’t come to rest
I’m damaged bad at best
She’ll decide what she wants
I’ll probably be the last to know
No one says until it shows
See how it is they want you or they don’t

I’m in love with the world,
Through the eyes of a girl,
Who’s still around the morning after.
