Analysis of In the morning



In the morning I am finally leaving.
I have had too much of my heart bleeding.
Everything you have done is wrong.
It reminds me of a sad, sad song.

Happiness will be mine when we are apart.
Even though our fading love still tugs at my heart.
I break free from our last embrace.
I see the tears on your sad face.

I turn slowly to walk away.
You reach back to me but I won't stay.
Forever apart we now will always be.
And out there I hope to find a new me.
