Lyrics
2 BREAK OF DAY
(Shepherd/Quealy)
In the dark so deep, on a night so restless
Final words coming back to me
Close my eyes, but I can’t find comfort
Numbers on the tv say it’s half past three
So I lie and wait here for the Break of Day
For the sun to rise and take these blues away
Like a seagull over Alamitos Bay
I lie and wait here for the “Break of Day”
What becomes of heartache and sorrow
Like old memories they fade away
The night will end; I’ll be here tomorrow
And everything gets brighter with the Break of Day
So I lie and wait here for the “Break of Day”
For the sun to rise and take these blues away
Like the seagull over Alamitos Bay
I lie and wait here for the “Break of Day
I tell myself it’s not over
There’s nothing I could do or say
I’m gonna miss you tomorrow
But, I’ll see you again one day
When I fall in to that well of slumber
Old familiar dreams will comfort me
Unshaken by the sound of thunder
I’ll rest here with you, my favorite memory
So I lie and wait here for the “Break of Day”
For the sun to rise and take these blues away
Like the seagull over Alamitos Bay
I lie and wait here for the “Break of Day
