Subject: Lyr Add: SUN COMES UP, IT'S TUESDAY MORNING
I like the Cowboy Junkies' "SUN COMES UP, IT'S TUESDAY MORNING." Here are a few selected lyrics, the ones that best fit the situation. :D

Sun comes up, it's Tuesday morning
Hits me straight in the eye--
Guess you forgot to close the blinds last night
Oh, that's right, I forgot--it was me

Yeah, i sure do miss the smell of black coffee in the morning
And the sound of water splashing all over the bathroom
The kiss that you gave me even though I was sleeping-
But I kinda like the feel
Of this extra few feet in my bed.

Telephone ringing but I don't answer
Because everybody knows good news always sleeps till noon...

So I start to dial your number
Then I remember, so I reach for something to smoke
And anyway, I'd rather listen to Coltrane
Than go through all that shit again...

Yeah, sure I'll admit there are times when I miss you,
Especially right now when I need someone to hold me,
But there are some things that can never be forgiven-
And I just gotta tell you,
I kinda like this extra few feet in my bed.
