Mostly Mornings…. Wayne Carson and I wrote this tune in the early '90s… still one of my favorites.
lyrics
Mostly Mornings when it’s misty
Them old grey clouds ridin’ low
Hangin’ o’er me, like her sweet memory
From not that long ago
Mostly Mornings… that’s when it hits me
This time she’s really gone away
So I tell me lies… drink alibis
Just to get me through the day
Chorus
She begged me to give her one good reason
Just one reason to remain
All she ever wanted was sunshine
All I gave her was rain
Solo
Repeat chorus
Solo
Mostly Summers, Mostly Winters
Mostly all the time, it seems
But Mostly Mornings, that’s when I miss my darlin’
‘Cause that’s when I’ve just held her in my dreams
I’ve just held her in dreams
