Umphrey's McGee: "Morning Song (Mourning Song)" Lyrics

Should I see you if you come around

I'll pull my focus off the ground

And nice to meet you if you make your rounds

I most likely won't be found

Even speaking now to hear the sound

Of your voice brings me damage now 

There's a reason why we're leaving town

It's moving on, starting now

I was never once convinced

I know I've left my fingerprints

To wash away would not resolve a thing at all

And our fantasy is so misunderstood

But I know you did the best you could

It's always easiest to turn your head and walk

Because you know people always talk their talk

Should I be surprised to see your face again

Random glimpses now and then

Here it is, we've been reduced to papers piled

I'm no longer in denial

I was never once convinced

I know I left my fingerprints

To wash away would not resolve, so the memory dissolves awaaaay

Here's your mourning song

I know the day seems long

It's going to be okaaaaaay

And tomorrows new

But I'll think of you along the waaaaay

Still incomplete

But I hope to meet a stronger faaaaate

Here's your mourning song

I know the night seems long 

It's going to be okaaay--aaaaaay
