FROM HERE TO MORNING
(Harlan Howard)


Sammi Smith - 1978



A sad old star, my spirits fall, I hate the night
When you were here, this was my favourite time
And what I'd give to hear you tell me everything's alright
But I know you, you'll never change your mind

From here to morning is such a long, long time
Will I make it, can I take it
With the memory of your lovin' on my mind
From here to morning is such a long, long time

(Instrumental Break)

The sun goes down and I go down right with it
This house is like a tomb since you been gone
Without your love I'm sinkin' fast, I might as well admit it
I just can't seem to handle it alone

From here to morning is such a long, long time
Will I make it, can I take it
With the memory of your lovin' on my mind
From here to morning is such a long, long time
From here to morning is such a long, long time
