Good for 2001, too: WHEN MY MORNING COMES AROUND (Iris DeMent) As recorded by Iris DeMent on "The Way I Should" (1996) When my morning comes around, no one else will be there, so I won't have to worry about what I'm supposed to say; And I alone will know that I have climbed the great big mountain, And that's all that'll matter when my morning comes around. When my morning comes around, I will look back on this valley, At these sidewalks and alleys where I have lingered so long, This place where I now live it will burn to ash and cinder, Like some ghost, I won't remember when my morning comes around. When my morning comes around, from a new cup I'll be drinking, And for once I won't be thinking: there's something wrong with me, I'll wake up and find, that my faults have been forgiven, Oh, and that's when I'll start living When my morning comes around.
When my morning comes around, |
