"The seductive call of a siren is well-nigh impossible to resist and if heeded leads to bad results" Greek Mythology
The word morning originally referred to the sunrise but today usually refers to the period of time just after one wakes up from sleep. Morning precedes daylight, evening and night in the sequence of a day.
Morning is the part of the day usually reckoned from dawn to noon. The name (which comes from the Middle English word morwening) was formed from the analogy of evening using the word "morn" (in Middle English morwen), and originally meant the coming of the sunrise as evening meant the beginning of the close of the day. The Middle English morwen dropped over time and became morwe, then eventually morrow, which properly means "morning", but was soon used to refer to the following day (i.e., "tomorrow"), as in other Germanic languages—English is unique in restricting the word to the newer usage. The Spanish word "mañana" has two meanings in English: "morning," and "tomorrow."
The most obvious manifestation of this meaning is in English speaking countries where the greeting changes from "good night" to "good morning" when midnight passes.
Oren Lavie (Hebrew: אורן לביא) (born 1976) is an Israeli singer, songwriter, playwright, and theatre director. His music video for "Her Morning Elegance" earned a 2009 Grammy Award nomination for "Best Short Form Music Video". On March 10, 2009, Oren released his debut album, The Opposite Side of the Sea, in the United States. He revealed on his Facebook page that he has a second album in the works, with a possible release date in September or December 2011.
Lavie was born in Tel Aviv and spent his youth in Israel. In 1997 his play Sticks and Wheels and his production of it were awarded the main prizes at the Acco Festival of Alternative Israeli Theatre. The production played in Tel Aviv during 1998. In that year he went to London to study theatre directing at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA). After his graduation, two of his plays were produced in various London theatres. They already contained several songs written and composed by him.
In 2001 Lavie moved to New York where he directed several workshops on his plays, and gradually shifted his focus to songwriting. In 2003, he relocated to Berlin and began recording his first album, The Opposite Side of the Sea, which he self produced. The album was released in Europe in January and February 2007, and in the United States in March 2009.

Abel Tesfaye (born February 16, 1990), better known by his stage name The Weeknd, is an R&BCanadian recording artist and record producer from Toronto. He began recording songs under The Weeknd and uploading them to YouTube in late 2010, though the identity of the individual behind the project was initially unknown. In March 2011, The Weeknd released a nine-song free album, House of Balloons which was critically acclaimed. The title track is based on a sample of Siouxsie and the Banshees' hit single "Happy House. The first album is a part of a trilogy which includes Thursday released in August of the same year and Echoes of Silence issued in December. In June, House of Balloons was named as one of ten shortlisted nominees of 2011 Polaris Music Prize but eventually lost to Arcade Fire's The Suburbs. On December 21, 2011 at 11:07 p.m. EST Tesfaye released his highly anticipated third mixtape Echoes of Silence. The Weeknd's site crashed shortly after due to the large number of downloads. The Weeknd quickly provided a Hulkshare link to keep the album available while the official site was down.
Naked, you are simple as one of your hands,
smooth, earthy, small, transparent, round:
you have moon-lines, apple-pathways:
naked, you are slender as a naked grain of wheat.
Naked, you are blue as a night in Cuba;
you have vines and stars in your hair;
naked, you are spacious and yellow
as summer in a golden church.
Naked, you are tiny as one of your nails-
curved, subtle, rosy, till the day is born
and you withdraw to the underground world,
as if down a long tunnel of clothing and of chores:
your clear light dims, gets dressed - drops its leaves-
and becomes a naked hand again.
(Nana Cayammi / Gilberto Gil / Norma Tanega)
The morning it is sad
The morning so beautiful
The sunshine it is sad
The sunshine no friend of mine
You awake
It is day
As you go from me away
The morning it is sad
The morning so beautiful
So, alone I will stay
The daylight takes you away
So I wait 'til good night
Begins to end the daylight
The daytime, the daybreak
The dawning
Come away, until day
Come away with me my love
Come away, until day
Come away and sing the night
The morning it is sad
The morning so beautiful
The sunshine it is sad
The sunshine no friend of mine
You awake it is day
As you go from me away
The morning it is sad
Morning creeps into the window
Its golden fingers touch the sheets where we lay
Morning wraps its arms around me
And whispers in my ear it was all yesterday
Morning you're lying here beside me
But somehow now the night feels
So many years away
And it's morning it's morning it's morning
This moment the end of all beginnings
We just go on with living and be what we are
Memory lingers deep inside me
I must believe you loved me
If just for an hour
Longing to be the one you dream of
But someone else has touched that place in your heart
And it's morning it's morning it's morning
Love love is so unfair
Its eyes are a lie and its heart doesn't care
If it's left out in the rain
It's me that feels the pain
Morning there's no one left to save me
And all all you ever gave me
Was the need to write a song
And it's morning it's morning it's morning
Here in this room this narrow room where life began when we were young last night
I feel your back pressed close to me and hear your steady breathing as you sleep
Then as the first soft glow of dawn moves silver grey like paint along the wall
I touch your hand and feel your ring and know this night is all we'll ever have
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes
You breathe my name and it just seems to dangle there
Then I feel your fingers running through my mind
Jumbling up my thoughts to leave them tangled there
I know so well that this is all there is and when we leave this room it's gone
My mind is clear as we walk down the crooked little steps to the front door
A ray of sun that ricoches from off a rooftop light our stumbling way
I touch your hand and feel your ring and know this night is all we'll ever have
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes...
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes...

All the life's gone out of me
Coffee's cold, paper's old
It's morning
Head's on fire, oh lord I'm tried
It's morning
Waiting for another day to live and die away
Try not to fret, try to forget
That it's morning
Lonesome morning reverie
All the life's gone out of me
Drinks are done, daylight's come
It's the same old situation,
Same old faces, but a diff'rent town,
Nowhere to run to
And nowhere to hide,
I'm dancing with the shadows
In a cold moonlight.
And I can't wait until the morning,
I can't wait another minute, hour, day or night.
I can't wait until the morning,
You know it won't feel so cold.
It's 5 a.m. and I just got into bed
And the heart of the city is almost gone
And I know what is right
And I know what is wrong
I'm dancing with the shadows
In a cold moonlight.
And I can't wait until the morning,
I can't wait another minute, hour, day or night.
I can't wait until the morning,
You know it feels so cold.
Sometimes in between your dreams at night,
I walk alone, I'm going underground.
And in the distance I can hear a crowd,
It makes me wonder what it's all about,
All about, all about.
It's the same old consolation
Different faces in the same old town
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide
They're dancing with the shadows
In a cold moonlight.
And I can't wait until the morning,
I can't wait another minute, hour, day or night.
I can't wait until the morning,
You know it feels so cold,
Feels so cold.
And I can't wait until the morning,
I can't wait another minute, hour, day or night.
I can't wait until the morning,
You know it feels so cold,
Sleepy head get out of bed
Big bad world is calling
Step in your shoes and catch the news
It's another morning
Morning,
It's morning
Morning,
It's morning again
Rub your eyes as nature sighs
The population's yawning
Just step in your shoes there's so much to do
It's a brand new morning
Morning,
It's morning
Morning,
ItÅ morning again
And all around this cardboard town
The cops are crawling
The sirens scream and break your dreams
It's morning
It's morning
It's morning
Hard light, take the wings of the winter
Song bird, they were strong hands that held her
Miles above ground, we can’t see you now
Morning took the reins from the rider
Strong hands on the lap behind her
woke up this morning
lit a cigarette
I could still here your snoring
see your silhouette
I have to go my baby
I have to leave you now
my head is spinning heavily
I have to go now
barefoot on your soft floor
smoke rings in the air
my image in the mirror
whisper and I stare
I have to go now baby
I have to leave you now
my head is spinning heavily
Morning,like a picture
Without a frame
Morning,like a smile
Without a name
Simple
So simple but yet
So true
Oh morning I know now
Why your sky is so blue
Oh the eye
I cannot see through
What the whole soul can see behind
There are some things so beautiful
But still undefined
Morning
Like a prophet without a word
Morning
Like a soldier without a sword
Oh now
It's funny how we see so much
But cannot feel a thing
Oh my sweet savior morning hear me say
Hear me say yeah yeah yeah
Monday morning and you tell me:
Waking up beside you is living in style
I feel the sun caressing, softly through the shades, and
For no particular reason, I think I'm gonna smile!
Wake up, sweety, wake up!
(That's just what you tell me)
Sleepy, sleepyhead,
Your eyes are still afloat
And the radio carries on in the holy language
About a million traffic jams from Rishon to Ganot
There's a little song playing as the day begins
Bright and clear
Any minute now the news
God I hope today well hear
Good morning, good morning, yeah.
Listen, I've decided
(That's just what you tell me)
Both of us are going, but not to work, hurrah!
We could check the water level of the sea of Galilee
Or make a run for chocolate-milk
Down in Yotvata
There's a little song playing as the day begins
Bright and clear
Any minute now the news
God I hope today well hear
Good morning, good morning
Let's take the dusty charade
Our heartache and longing still stuck on her glass
We can take it slowly, for history's before us
What good would it do us to speed by the past?
There's a little song playing as the day begins
Bright and clear
Any minute now the news
God I hope today well hear
Good morning, good morning, yeah!
The sun was bright, the winds were clean in the morning
My days are night and you're a dream in the morning
Since you said goodbye, I cry in the morning, but it's
evening
All day long now you are gone
Since you're leaving me
Light is gone and birds fly home in the morning
My days are dark and I'm alone in the morning
Since you said goodbye, I cry in the morning, but it's
evening
All day long now you are gone
Since you're leaving me
Still I wake and reach out in the night
I dare not look for fear I might
Find you're no longer there
Find the morning glare far too bright
Do you miss me in the morning like I miss you?
Do you, do you, do you, do you?
'Til I'm with you once again in the morning
I will try to sleep again in the morning
People wonder why I cry in the morning
All day long now you are gone
Here in this room this narrow room where life began when we were young last night
I feel your back pressed close to me and hear your steady breathing as you sleep
Then as the first soft glow of dawn moves silver grey like paint along the wall
I touch your hand and feel your ring and know this night is all we'll ever have
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes
You breathe my name and it just seems to dangle there
Then I feel your fingers running through my mind
Jumbling up my thoughts to leave them tangled there
I know so well that this is all there is and when we leave this room it's gone
My mind is clear as we walk down the crooked little steps to the front door
A ray of sun that ricoches from off a rooftop light our stumbling way
I touch your hand and feel your ring and know this night is all we'll ever have
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes...
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes...
I'm shooting through the stars tonight
Can't you see me I'm a flash of light
Don't know where I'm heading, hopefully the moon
Don't know where I'm heading but I hope I get there soon
Oh, morning
I'll be back by morning, yeah
Morning, I'll be back by morning
To see the sun come up
Trees unfold
Wind keeps blowing dry
And you know that I can't help now you know
I just gotta fly when I
See the look, in your eyes
Love takes me away
And I don't know where I'm going but I
Know that I will stay
Because I'm morning
Just because I'm morning, yeah
Morning
Just because I'm morning
I'm shooting through the stars tonight
Can't you see me I'm a flash of light
Don't know where I'm heading, hopefully the moon
Don't know where I'm heading but I hope I get there soon
Oh, morning
I'll be back by morning, yeah
Will there really be a morning?
Is there such a thing as day?
Could I see it from the mountains
If I were as tall as they?
Morning...
Will there really be a morning
Has it feet like water - lillies?
Has it feathers like a bird?
Does it come from famous places
Of which I have never heard
Has it feet like water - lilies?
Has it feathers like a bird?
Morning...
Will here rally be a morning
Oh, some scholar! Oh, some sailor!
Oh, some wise man from the skies!
Please to tell this little pilgrim
Where the place called morning lies
Morning...
Will there really be a morning
night
passes slow
get up moon go, I can't take it
my thoughts
weigh me down
and I'm prisoner to my blanket
'cause I'm thirsting for
the brilliance of the glorious return of
chorus
the morning
sleep
enter my body
I promise this time we won't fight you
Dream
Come and reveal
what my mind won't let me feel, I won't deny you
bird
where have you gone
come and sing me your song, I won't chide you
come and crack open the sky
and let your golden light through
'cause I'm thirsting for
the brilliance of the glorious return of
chorus
the morning
fear
you're not wanted here
hitch a ride with a tear wash away then
light
is what I yearn for
if its behind that door, then let me break it
chorus
light
is what I yearn for
if its behind that door, then let me break it
Morning, is the time of day,
When you are far away
That I'll miss you.
Feeling, your body next to mine,
Giving that certain smile,
That you want me.
Oh I wonder.
Yes how I wonder.
Why are you leaving
Maybe you'll stay
While I still pray.
Oh, how I pray.
So I wait for evening.
When the sun goes down.
And you're still home.
Oh I wonder.
Yes how I wonder.
Why are you leaving
Maybe you'll stay
While I still pray.
Oh, how I pray.
Oh, how I pray.
Sing, silent sparrow of the morning
Drown, out the weeping sound of morning
Morning comes
In waves of sorrow
Somber as the day that follows
Still morning comes
Wake, though the heavy feeling lingers
Catch, and release it in your fingers
Then let go
Morning comes
In waves of sorrow
Somber as the day that follows
Still morning comes
And I’ll never forget you dear
When the sun appears
You’ll be my light
And though it wasn’t said my dear
Every moment here
You’ll be my life
Morning comes
In waves of sorrow
Somber as the day that follows
Still morning comes
There's a morning
A gentle light that blows out of the sky
And you realize
It's like no other morning
You wipe the sleep out of your eyes
And you wonder why
All the clouds of yesterday
Have flit the skies and blown away
And someone's calling your name
There's a morning
You lie awake, you're waiting for the rain
But it does not appear
And you have your dreams
You understand what money means
Nothing here
All the clouds of yesterday
Have flit the skies and blown away
And someone's calling your name
Are you coming out to play?
Are you coming out to play?
There's a morning
You doubted you would ever see this day
But you had faith
Faith is the distance
From what you hope to what you fear
It's brought you here
All the clouds of yesterday
Have flit the skies and blown away
(Three times)
And someone's calling your name
Go where you want
when you know you can change your direction.
'Cause it always arrives
but it starts with another intention.
You could drive for a while,
but you'll never understand what has happened
to the places you left
when you weren't paying any attention.
Your eyes go wide in this night
you were heading to.
And the morning surrounding you witht his gloom.
The trails in the back as a nightly track.
Your eyes see the better day
You could drive for a while,
but you'll never understand what has happened
to the places you left
when you weren't paying any attention.
Your eyes go wide in this night
you were heading to.
And the morning surrounding you witht his gloom.
The trails in the back as a nightly track.
Your eyes see the better day
Go where you want
when you know you can change your direction.
'Cause it always arrives
but it starts with another intention.
Your eyes go wide in this night
you were heading to.
And the morning surrounding you witht his gloom.
The trails in the back as a nightly track.
The feeling of coming to no one there
You rip off my clothes as you rip off my life
Destroyed my world in a matter of words
You left me waiting, you left me undeciding
You left me waiting, you left me waiting
I hear the knock at the door
And I don't care who's not there anymore
This sound is driving me insane
And damn it nothing's going my way
We're at the point of talking about the morning
Trying to decide who's going to go
I think you forgot whose bed you slept in
And who is going home
I'm running through the forest by myself
I'm walking over oceans to you
Hey ma, I'm walking on water
Hey God, I think I'm your son
We're at the point of talking about the morning
Trying to decide who's going to go
I think you forgot whose bed you slept in
And who is going home
Don't stand there looking at me
Don't stand there looking through me
Just take your clothes and I'll open the door
Looking around, you don't live here anymore
I don't know what I can do for you
I'm not sure what I can be for you
Over some table in someone else's kitchen
Someone's talking but no one wants to listen
We're at the point of talking about the morning
Trying to decide who's going to go
I think you forgot whose bed you slept in
And who is going home
I see you in the morning
When the sun has crossed your eyes
Your innocence escapes you
I can see through your disguise
And even though you’re sorry
That may not be enough
But I’m not holding out
For an answer
And all that entails
And all it belies
Just looking for somebody to love
And I’ll give you a chance
To make it up
I’ve seen the way he sees you
Saying hello ain’t a crime
But it’s all this talk of lovers
Involves a certain amount of lying
And even though you’re sorry
That may not be enough
But I’m not holding out
For an answer
And all that entails
And all it belies
Just looking for somebody to love
And I’ll give you a chance
To make it up
And even though you’re sorry
That may not be enough
But I’m not holding out
For an answer
And all that entails
And all it belies
Just looking for somebody to love
And I’ll give you a chance
Will you promise
To listen to my words,
If only for a minute?
‘Cause you are in
Every single breath,
And every word that’s in this.
I know I lost
Before I even fought,
And in it, I am haunted.
And all that’s left
Are pieces of the truth,
But that’s all I ever wanted.
You are such a light in my life;
In the morning, let your light shine on.
This is all
That I will ever have
To give to you that you could ever want.
So when you’re lost
And burning in the dark,
Let my life assure that you are not.
You are such a light in my life;
In the morning, let your light shine on.
Don’t leave me,
But don’t come back either.
Don’t leave me,
But don’t come back either.
All Lyrics © 2009 He Who Never (Aaron Rosell)
every morning it's the same, bang your head but feel no pain, the world can
collide, but we'll struggle by, holding on it has to hurt late again but no
one cares, it's all out of sight but we shouldn't mind.
Chorus:
keep it out of mind or you might regret it, keep it out of sight or you
might not get it, keep it out of mind or you might regret it keep it of sight.
time for living, there are no decision as we get much closer, it's almost
been done before, no illusions just something else as we get much closer
it's almost done before your time.
every morning it's the same, someone else is cast away, there's not much to
find, but we mustn't cry, holding on to what we've got everyday is not
enough, it's all be designed, but we shouldn't mind.
Chorus:
keep it out of mind or you might regret it, keep it out of sight or you
might not get it, keep it out of mind or you might regret it keep it of sight.
time for living, there are no decision as we get much closer, it's almost
been done before, no illusions just something else as we get much closer
it's almost done before your time.
sometimes you lose but you can't seem to think nobody minds, all we can say
is I won't give up without a fight, 'cause no one else is gonna do it
alright, but baby don't cry, baby don't cry, come on, come on it's alright.
time for living, there are no decision as we get much closer, it's almost
been done before, no illusions just something else as we get much closer
Every morning the same old story, I don't care and I'm not worried!
You should do what you want to, you want to
Tell yourself over and over
You've done the best you could
God made you good
My friend don't be afraid to speak out and
Tell him no you won't go
Down that road as you've been there before
And you know it's too far from home
You've been left feeling quite tender
Your heart's an empty space
It's a hard place
My friend don't be afraid to speak out and
Tell him no you won't go
Down that road as you've been there before
And you know it's too far from home
This has been dragging on for a long time
And the one that's seeing clearly is you
It's seems to me that you've come to a crossroads
And you know what you've got to do
When morning comes
You will feel better
And here is where you'll find
Some peace of mind
My friend don't be afraid to speak out and
Tell him no you won't go
Down that road as you've been there before
And you know it's too far from home
Too far from home
You should do what you want to, you want to
The morning goes out in a black, backless dress
Tired of waiting for me
She goes out for tea
Oh morning
Forgive me morning
The morning goes out with the mid afternoon
She stays out late at the corner café
Oh morning
Forgive me morning
Now here I am again sitting alone with the nighttime
Now here I am again sleepless and restless with nighttime
CHORUS:
Oh morning I think I know you
but I really need another day to rest
Oh morning I think I need you to save me from nighttime
He holds me too tight
The nighttime tells me that I am his only light
I didn’t know
Forgive me morning
The morning takes down her hair
As she cries because I wasn’t there
The morning is always right
But she gives in to night
CHORUS
