Lyrics

Humming In the Mornings Before Dawn
-Kurt Gundersen © 2019

Deep in the darkest corner of night
Wondering if I’ll ever fall asleep
My mind keeps making up endless fights
In which I never seem to compete

I need to let go
But the silence starts to scream
And just when I feel my breathing slow
I'm already waking up from bad dreams

9 am on a Saturday
I really should go out and run for miles
But this headache won't go away
I think I'll stay right here for a while

I need to let go
Trying to be someone I'm not
But knowing how quickly the time goes
I need to give all that I've got

Chorus:
And Hummingbirds don't really hum, she said
It's just the sound of their wings buzzing along
And if only I weren't such a night owl instead
I could be humming in the mornings before dawn

We don't really get more time we get less
Even when you learn to slow it down
Life without meaning makes you ravenous
Filling up all the holes could make you drown

Need to let go
Trying to be someone I'm not
But knowing how quickly the time goes
I need to give all that I've got

Repeat Chorus
