Leah in the Morning (Genesis 29)

V3.5

[Verse] Woke up blurry eyed staggerin' sway Wedding night a haze hearts gone astray Thought I saw an angel in the dim light glare But morning broke and oh the shock why ain't it her [Chorus] Leah in the morning ain't no Rachel by my side Feels like I'm Jacob but I'm living someone else's life Worked those long years thought it'd be just right But Leah in the morning it's a different kinda night [Verse 2] Seven years of sweat blood tears all spent Laban's crafty scheme where did my time went Shoulda checked the face before we said those vows Now I'm stuck with Leah from the plough [Chorus] Leah in the morning ain't no Rachel by my side Feels like I'm Jacob but I'm living someone else's life Worked those long years thought it'd be just right But Leah in the morning it's a different kinda night [Bridge] Could've sworn it bein' Esau was easier lied Deceived my own dad now I'm feelin' divine Mirror to my mischief what’s this tale unfurled Guess I learned my lesson in this wily world [Verse 3] Morning sun laughin’ through the cracks in the door Love games trick times dirty tricks galore Rachel in my dreams Leah on the floor Gotta deal with fate forevermore
