Monday Morning - Ram Skank

I know there were a hundred ways to tell her I loved her It's funny how they're all so clear today And when her face was burning with sadness and yearning I don't know why I turned my eyes away But it's so easy looking at the game the morning after Adding up the kisses and the laughter Knowing how you'd play it if the chance to play it over ever came But then, a Monday morning quarterback never lost a game The room was so alive with all her feelings and longings I saw the spark of danger in her eyes Well, how would it have hurt me if I'd turned back and held her? A moment passes, something lovely dies But it's so easy looking at the game the morning after Adding up the kisses and the laughter Knowing how you'd play it if the chance to play it over ever came But then, a Monday morning quarterback never lost a game Yes, it's easier to win it when you know you'd never play it quite the same But then, this Monday morning quarterback never lost a game

Kissing Goodbye, Tears in her eyes, It's the last time, The last time you can be sure of, But I can taste the salty kisses and the runny makeup, Yea, it could be so boring But she keeps crying, And they keep kissing, And I just hang about and listen She's got to go, She's got to go, In the airport, in the morning, and I know She's got to go Now it's time they know, They don't take a step, Line keeps on pushing, They won't stop kissing, The airport is racing, The smokers are pacing, It just started raining, Soon I'll have to go But she keeps crying, And they keep kissing, And i just hang about and listen But she's got to go, She's got to go, In the airport, In the morning, I know She's got to go In the morning, In the airport She's crying and the phone rings And you answer, and its quiet And there's nothing that'll change the fact That she's leaving tomorrow And you'll be alone again with nothing to distract you You watch the clock as it keeps ticking (Over and over) Monday morning airport (Over and over) Monday morning airport

I was lying on my bed Feelin' like I was nearly dead Got my soul on fire Mama you can't mean it I was bleeding from my pride I was bleeding from my eyes Got my soul on ice Mama you can cream it Early morning rise Got my guts in my eyes Got my soul on fire All right
