Sunrise in the morning

when the night comes for me

and its darkness is the pain I feel

when my heart freezes over

'cause you're no longer

my sunrise in the morning

I so much want to see

you're gone God knows where

you made a retreat I couldn't foresee

somewhere out there living the good life

wanting to be free

and I'm out here, wondering

what went wrong, what did I miss

what heartbeat became unreal

I have no answers

I'm not trying to find them

'cause there's no reason to explain

what happened here

so I'm picking up the pieces

packing suitcases, not coming back

no more sunrises, no more mornings

to meet

and I do what I always do

moving on, closing doors

opening new ones

no use wondering about the why's

the world is a great place to be

always new oppertunities  to meet

that's how I look at life

feelin' just fine
