Lyrics

You wake the morning
Wake the morning
To find the bitter light is gone
Broke down in someone else's palace
Touched down on someone else's dawn
We caught you glowing in the gloaming
When you move in's when I move on
If not for you then no one

Betwixt the mildness and the wildness
And the mellowness of morn
Under a canopy of clouds
A crown of cuckolds you adorn
Crawl back from under what we had
I am not sad but I am worn

In all this lightning storm you come and strike me down again

June June June
June June June
June June June
If not for you than no one

Storm side the sunny side
We all abide whatever side you take
You're picture perfect looming loveliness
Be content for goodness sake
So say us soldiers on the battlefield
I'm not alive but I'm awake

In all this thunderstorm you come and roll me out again

June June June
June June June
June June June

So much time wasted waiting for you
And when I held you close
Oh my mind was filling up with this occasion

By July you never know we make amends
Come August time my baby girl we may be friends
But until this hard heart bleeds it ends on you
Depends on you
June
