Lyric of the Night--"Morning Yearning" - Ben Harper

"Morning Yearning" - Ben Harper

A finger' s touch upon my lips, It' s a morning yearning, Pull the courtains shut, try to keep it dark, But the sun is burning
The world awakens on the run, And will soon be yearning, With hopes of beter days to come, It' s a morning yearning
Another day, another chance to get it right, Must i still be learning, Baby crying kept us up all night, With her morning yearning
Like a summer rose, i' m a victim of the fall, But i' m soon returning, Your love' s the warmest place the sun ever shines, My morning yearning

















Ben Harper's song is featured in the soundtrack to the Luke Wilson film Henry Poole Is Here.  However, on the official soundtrack release, John Linton covers the song.  Linton is no Ben Harper.  What a great song.  Harper fingerpicks his guitar and sings with passion.

Try the movie too.  Luke Wilson does a good job playing a depressed and ailing man who finds himself living in a house with a miracle.
