[SARA]
Six o'clock in the morning
And I pray that the rain is through
There's laughter in the kitchen
And the sheet's still warm from you
Coffee's on as I lie here alone
You put the coffee on
Alarm is ringing, baby's calling, and I'm trying
To get myself to you
You are the morning
You start each day anew
As if it were so simple
I guess it is for you
"Come on," you shout silently
"Come on, come on,"
And I'm trying, but this darkness won't let go of me
Let go of me
Baby in the photo, off to school
[SARA & NARRATOR]
Woman in the mirror
Age is cruel
[SARA]
Who will I be from nine to three?
My little girl
All dressed in pink and blue
I got myself a good man
There's no one better than you
How did I become so useless
In this time and place?
I wanna stay under these covers
And not show my face
Welcome to the morning
Today's a brand new day
Time to stand up on my feet
And push these thoughts away
