Lyrics:
Woke up this morning from a long night in the storm
Looked up this morning, saw the roses full of thorns
Mountains are falling, they don't have nowhere to go
The ocean's a diamond, only shines when you're alone

Can we start it all over again this morning?
I lost all my defenses this morning
Won't you show me the way it used to be?

We've gone all around till there's nothing left to say
We've wore it all down into something that couldn't be saved
We tore it all down and buried me underneath the weight

Can we start it all over again this morning?
I let down my defenses this morning
It was just you and me this morning
I've run all out of guesses this morning
Won't you show me the way it could've been?
