Rise in the morning
With you by my side
There are no promises given
There are many fish in the sea
I rise in the morning
My shoes do not shine
I appear slightly dishevelled
You appear partly divine
I look to the sea
And I fall to my knees
Darlin' won't you please
Take me as I am
You rise in the morning
Your smile does shine
You appear entirely weightless
I appear pale by your side
I look to the sea
And I fall to my knees
Darlin' won't you please
Take me as I am
I look to the sea
And I fall to my knees
Darlin' won't you please
Take me as I am
(I will love you as you are)
Take me as I am
(I will love you as you are)
