Cold Lonesome Morning Lyrics

Cold Lonesome Morning

One of these cold lonesome mornings you're gonna kill me.
I'm gonna lay there and I'm gonna die.
You will soon give me pain enough to fill me.
?Cause I'm gone past doing any good to cry.

And the warm sunshine is like a stranger,
There's a cruel violation with the dawn.
My pain can't stand illumination
And one of these cold lonesome mornings I'll be gone.

One of these cold lonesome mornings dark and early.
Before a wild bird sings I'm gonna fly.
While it's still dark and I'm still reaching for you.
I'll wake up and I can't cry.

But I know my heart can't stand another tremor.
How it's holding together I don't know,
But just before the dawning's first glimmer.
One of these cold lonesome mornings I'm gonna go.

One of these cold lonesome mornings you're gonna kill me.
I'm gonna lay there and I'm gonna die.
You will soon give me pain enough to fill me.
?Cause I'm gone past doing any good to cry.

And the warm sunshine is like a stranger,
There's a cruel violation with the dawn.
My pain can't stand illumination
And one of these cold lonesome mornings I'll be gone.
