LEAVE IT FOR ANOTHER DAY

Words and music by Sarah McQuaid & Gerry O’Beirne

Recorded on Walking Into White (2015)

I can’t begin 
To explain 
Wouldn’t know what words to say 
Leave it for another day 

And there is no plan 
That I can understand 
Why do we go on this way 
Leave it for another day 

I see you in the morning 
Still haunted by the night 
I touch your face to tell you 
It’s all right 

Remember when we lay 
In the woods all night 
And stumbled home across the fields 
Happy and bleary eyed 

The mist around our feet 
Lay heavy on the ground 
We floated through the cold grey air 
Suspended on a cloud 

You come to me in the morning 
Still haunted by the night 
I touch your face to tell you 
It’s all right 

If I had my way 
We’d shut the world out 
We’d close our eyes and think of things 
That don’t hurt to think about 

I’d sing to you in the morning 
I’d hold you through the night 
I’d touch your face to tell you 
It’s all right
