One day I slowly floated away

One day I slowly floated away

All the war horses wore rubber bands

To hide their hooves from sinking sand

The commander in charge was hoping that

Their destiny was not to die

Wake up in the morning

I shall wake up, and so shall you

And I wake up, the sun is beautiful

And it is warming you and I

Fragile as we lie

Hard to foresee the future

Our bodies are growing thin

Glimpsing the peeling paint off

The nurses ivory chin

You've got a lot of nerve coming here

Your eyes are beating rhythms way

Faster than the speeding bullet that

Took the life of your radio

Wake up in the morning

I shall wake up, and so shall you

And I wake up, the sun is beautiful

And it is warming you and I

Fragile as we lie

And in the corner chair

Soft and soap-scented

My darling cries apologies

We foresee the mercy that's been shown

My young limbs will not go unthanked or unseen

Wake up in the morning

I shall wake up, and so shall you

And I wake up, the sun is beautiful

And it is warming you and I

Fragile as we lie

Ohhh, ahhh

Ohhh, ahhh
