...TOUCH ME IN THE MORNING... by Diana Ross
-----------------------------..............
*from 'Touch Me in the Morning' (1973)*
*CAPO 1st FRET*
(Original Key: )
Chorus 1:
Touch me in the mor-ning,
Then just walk a-way.
We don't have to-mor-row,
But we had yester-day.
Verse 1:
Hey...
Wasn't it me who said,
That nothing good's gonna last for-ever?
And wasn't it me who said,
Let's just be glad for the time to-gether?
Bridge 1:
It must've been hard to tell me,
That you've given all you had to give.
I can understand you're feeling that way;
Everybody's got their life to live.
Break:
Well, I can say goodbye, in the cold morning light.
But I can't watch love die, in the warmth of the night.
If I've got to be strong,
Don't you know I need to have to-night when you're gone?
'Till you're gone, I need to lie here,
And think about the last time that you'll...
Chorus 2:
Touch me in the mor-ning,
Then just close the door.
Leave me as you found me,
Empty like be-fore...
Verse 2:
Hey...
Wasn't it yesterday,
We used to laugh at the wind be-hind us?
Didn't we run away,
And hope that time wouldn't try to find us?
Bridge 1:
Didn't we take each other,
To a place where no one's ever been?
Yeah, I really need you near me tonight,
'Cos you'll never take me there again.
Break:
Let me watch you go, with the sun in my eyes.
We've seen how love can grow, now we'll see how it dies.
If I've got to be strong,
Don't you know I need to have to-night when you're gone?
'Till you're gone, I need to hold you,
Until the time your hands reach out, and...
Chorus 3:
Touch me in the mor-ning,
Then just walk a-way.
We don't have to-mor-row,
But we had yester-day.
