Then The Morning Comes Lyrics


Paint the town take a bow
Thank every body you're gonna do it again
You are the few the proud
You are the antibody mind soul and Zen

And the world's a stage
And the world's a faze and the end is near
So push rewind just in time
Thank anybody you're gonna do it again

[Chorus]
The way that you walk
It's just the way that you talk like it ain't no thing
And every single day is just a fling
Then The Morning Comes

Take your knocks shake them off
Duck everybody you're gonna take them again
You are your foe, your friend
You are the paparazzi

You are the tragedian
And the world's a craze
And the world's a faze and the end is near
So push rewind just in time

Thank anybody you're gonna do it again

[Chorus]

And when it comes it moves so slow
Kind of like it's saying "I told you so"
Looking back before she goes
Tomorrow's gonna hurt

And the world's a stage
And the world's a faze and the end is near
So push rewind just in time
Thank anybody

[Chorus]

Then The Morning Comes
  • Guitarist and lead songwriter Greg Camp wrote this. Says Camp: "If you've ever been on a tour bus, you've seen what happens - it's crazy. You drink and do stupid things and you wake up the next day and go, 'What was I thinking?' Of course I was doing that long before we started going on the road, and I'm sure I'll be doing it long afterward."
  • Camp: "'Then The Morning Comes' was written in my little garage studio at my old house just after we got back from the first tour. It's basically about being on the road and how every day is like Groundhog Day - partying with friends and fans after the show, waking up feeling terrible and tired, then doing it all over again. The line that says 'Push Rewind' refers to how it's like starting the same tape over as soon as it's finished. You get caught up in the moment with everybody after the show, knowing you'll be hurtin' the next day - but you get up and do it again anyway. We did it for years and years. We still do. I can't believe we've survived it. Steve once said in an interview that I wrote it about him, but it's more about all four of us during that first tour." (thanks, Amy - Chicago, IL, for above 2)
