I

You know i love getting up in the morning

When the sun first strikes the trees

All the morning birds that sing above

Still bring back memories

Of a girl who stood beside me

When the rights i did were wrong

But she went back down the river

Just when i thought i could be strong

When i thought i could be strong so i sing

She never told me why she left meBut the letter say goodbye

Now my mornings are for wond'ring

And my nights to reason why

Why a stranger comes to steal the love

Of a girl i had to hold

But she went back down the river

Just when i thought i could be strong

When i thought i could be strong so i sing
