Mean It In The Morning

Loyle Carner

5

Only say it if you′ll mean it in the morning

To me it seems a little more important

To see if she be breezy with that easiness of autumnBefore we get all caught up in the calling

But the way that I was falling back in '09

Fidget but feeling it was go time

Sitting with my missus, didn′t show signs

Lines that were mine, kissing on that cold spine

Love was all and hopeless 'fore I focused on that co-sign

Sitting with my bro Kleff, listening to Mos Def

Waiting on a day's pay, promising to post cheques

But didn′t have a bigger brother who would know best

Melting on the inside, trying not to show stress

But your choice, it was only your voice

That could sooth me and save ′til I'm showing your boys

How to glow, others grow, blowing your noise

So I stop, and I thank you for showing those joys

′Cause they were saying I'm the lucky one

′Cause I was swaying with the change

Feeling ashamed when the money comes

But I've been waiting here for days, trust

And they would say when the others run

That she′d be waiting in the rain

Can't complain what the others done

I'll be the lucky one

Wish, I could love you like I know I should

Waiting for better for forever while we′re growing good

Feel like that young spun, living off my mum

Saying it wouldn′t be fun, but it's dumb, ′cause I know it would

Hoping to show it like the growing of the sunsets

One guess, waiting for the day that we were undressed

And say the days seemed to fade as the fun gets

Few and far between, coming clean, coming one chest

Pressed like apple in the cider she was sipping

Uh, now we were drunk and she would listen

Longing for the later, when you shaded her with kissing

And you coloured all her numbers with the love that you've been missing

Now you sit indifferent, crippled in the heat

A little brittle from the evils that you speak

You see it deep, still, you′re wishing underneath in the sheet

But you need to keep it sweet

'Cause they were saying I′m the lucky one

'Cause I was swaying with the change

Feeling ashamed when the money comes

But I've been waiting here for days, trust

And they would say when the others run

That she′d be waiting in the rain

Can′t complain what the others done

I'll be the lucky one
