Lyrics

Good Morning Dear

Expressing a greeting, possibly indicating the start of a new day.

I hope I didn't wake you too soon

Apologizing for the early communication, suggesting concern for the recipient's rest.

Because my mind is growing tired

Acknowledging mental fatigue and a struggle with decision-making.

Too much thinking what I should do

Feeling burdened by excessive contemplation of what actions to take.

I picture you out there

Imagining the recipient in a beautiful place, possibly to find solace or escape.

It must be beautiful this time of year

Speculating on the attractiveness of the imagined location during the current season.

All those East Coast leaves

Evoking an image of autumn leaves on the East Coast, symbolizing change and beauty.

Floating round like embers from burning trees

Comparing leaves to embers from burning trees, suggesting a vivid and dynamic scene.

Well the weather out here is just the same

Contrasting the weather in the singer's location with the beauty of the recipient's imagined place.

But the garden that you planted remains.

Highlighting that, despite external changes, a metaphorical garden created by the recipient endures.


Now it's only work

Describing a routine of work dominating the singer's life.

Each day bleeding into the next

Expressing a sense of monotony as days blend together.

Barely scraping by I tire myself out just so I can rest

Working hard to the point of exhaustion, emphasizing the need for rest.

But rest it rarely comes

Noticing a scarcity of rest despite efforts, indicating a struggle or hardship.

And when it does I cannot go home

Being unable to find solace or comfort even during moments of rest.

Because it's much too quiet

Explaining the avoidance of returning home due to overwhelming silence.

Seems that I'm not suited to being in love

Acknowledging a difficulty in adapting to being in love or maintaining a romantic relationship.

And everyone around me's changed

Observing changes in people around the singer, possibly influenced by time or circumstances.

But the garden that you planted remains.

Reiterating that, amidst changes, the metaphorical garden created by the recipient endures.


I think about you

Expressing frequent thoughts about the recipient, potentially indicating a strong emotional connection.

Maybe more than I should

Acknowledging the intensity of thoughts about the recipient.

But the smog is getting old

Commenting on environmental issues like smog, highlighting challenges or negativity in the surroundings.

The drugs I'm taking aren't so good

Referencing the negative impact of drugs, possibly suggesting a struggle with substance abuse.

So will you talk to me

Requesting communication despite potential fatigue or late-night activities on the recipient's part.

Even though you've had a late night

Expressing a need for support and reassurance from the recipient.

Because I need a little help

Seeking comfort and affirmation from the recipient during challenging times.

Baby, tell me I'll be alright

Expressing a desire for reassurance and encouragement.

Cause everything around me's changed

Observing changes in the surroundings and relationships but emphasizing the enduring nature of the metaphorical garden.

But the garden that you planted remains

Reiterating the lasting impact of the recipient's metaphorical garden despite external changes.
