You wake up from your dreams, reach out your hand
The bed beside you is empty and cold
Your sleepy head won't realize, you try again
Thinkin' there must be someone to hold
Then all of a sudden the truth comes to mind
There ain't no one to find
You close your eyes to the light
Tears and darkness, nothing seems right
You turn to the pillow and then
Cryin' takes over again
Darkest hour, hardest part is the morning
Darkest hour, hardest part is the morning
You take a shower, brush your teeth
Drink your coffee, have a cigarette
Get out of the door, go to work
With a shadow behind you can't forget
Then all of a sudden it wells up again
There ain't no one to blame
That cold spot in your heart
Since love fell apart
This empty feeling inside
No place to hide
Darkest hour, hardest part is the morning
Darkest hour, hardest part is the morning
