I woke up this morning
With an ache in my head
I woke up this morning
With an aceh in my head
...Been tossin' and turnin'
All night long
I woke up this morning
With an ache in my heart
I woke up this morning
On the wrong side of the bed
...Well baby, you done me wrong
Must be the lead in the air
Must be the lead in the air
...Been tossin' and turnin'
All night long (can't stop thinking of you)
Last night I had a dream
Last night I had a dream
The sky was brown, the day was gone
The night was...all that's left behind
It was the ugliest thing I ever did see
...A cloud of smoke over Beirut city
Well, I woke up this morning
With an ache in my heart
Must be the lead in the air
Must be the lead in the air
I woke up this morning
On the wrong side of the bed
I've got the Bliss street blues, baby
I've got the Bliss street blues
(but I thought of you instead)
I woke up this morning
And took a breath of lead
(my heart feels like lead,
It's so heavy now, my heart
Feels like lead, baby)
I stood by my window, looked outside
The sky was brown and black
(a cloud of smoke over Beirut city)
I took a breath
Beneath the dust and heat
I just can't breathe...
I woke up this morning
And closed the shutter down
Must be the lead in the air
Must be the lead in the air
I woke up this morning
On the wrong side of the bed
Won't you get out of my head?
Won't you get out of my head?
Would you leave me alone today?
...just let me breathe...the lead
