Alarm Clock

I looked at you
I think it was yesterday
Uh-huh a lazy wednesday
We slept all morning till noon
At eleven on the dot
I woke and saw you
But couldn't recognize you
at all in the new light

Every morning I fall in love
with someone other than who I trusted last night

Your hand brushed my back as if I knew you
but it felt like a stranger's who had lost the way to my breast
The wind chilled my skin
I clung to the mattress wall
I knew that if I had to fall
I'd find my way to the ground

Every morning I fall in love
with someone other than who I trusted last night

Oh we go our seperate ways
at the end of everyday we say goodbye
Oh we rock and then we roll
to the opposite bed poles
we dream alone

But every morning I fall in love
with someone other than who I trusted last night

The awkward moment passed
we moved to assigned seats
the place where our heads and feet align in perfect rows
the mold took it's shape
our breath took a monotone
you let out a quiet mone
I felt as if it were mine

Every morning I fall in love
with someone other than who I trusted last night
last night
last night
I trusted you
last night
I trusted you
