In the springtime
You would plant too early,
Where winter's chill still
Lingered in the night.
The bitter weather
Seemed to last forever,
But summer finally came around
To make things right.
For every seed you sowed too early,
A weed would grow in its place.

In the summer
When the days grew longer,
And the evenings were charged
With secrets and colored lights,
You could live like
There was no tomorrow,
But every morning you were
Giving up the fight.
Count the ways you shifted forward,
Not the days you drifted back.

Morning takes all night
I'm tryin' to tell you that morning takes all night
Don't you know that morning takes all night
So you might as well know
You're gonna reap what you sow inside of you

You never paid enough attention
To what you loved or left behind.
There's still time to make corrections,
It's no crime to change your mind.

Morning takes all night
Nothing changes that morning takes all night
Just knowing that morning takes all night
The sun will rise and it'll open your eyes
Yeah, morning takes all night
Now morning takes all night
Every day, every morning takes all night
You've got time, everything's OK everything's all right
You keep hearing that morning takes all night
It's no surprise, the sun's gonna rise, so open your eyes
