Waylon Jennings - Good Morning John lyrics

Good morning, John: Ain't it great to see your future shining brighter, Than the naked light of day? You made it, John: But I confess there was a time we two have thought, That you might let it slip away. I love you, John: In the cold and holy darkness, You were always shining brighter than a star. God bless you, John: For the love and joy you've given, As the living inspiration that you are. You scared me, John: 'Cos you've crossed so many borders into danger, With the price upon your head. They got you, John: And it hurts to see so many friends who ran, Along beside you laying dead. I know you, John: There ain't nothing you can't handle now, 'Cause there ain't nothing bigger than your heart. Keep shining, John: For you owe it to the others as the dark, And holy wonder that you are. Hang in there, John: It's a rocky road to glory, But the straightest and the strongest will survive. Keep smiling, John: We won't make it there tomorrow, But today let's say we're lucky we're alive. I see you, John: For the best of good intentions, Have a way of getting scattered by the wind. I mean it, John: You might lose your mind or memory, But you ain't gonna lose me as your friend.
