The melody of this song (especially the verses) bears a striking resemblance to that of the old American folk tune “A Poor Wayfarying Stranger”.
[Verse 1]
Morning comes cold and bright
And fills this room with a silent light
From the empty bed, across the empty floor
I trace your steps to the open door
[Chorus]
Guess I always knew I'd lose you
I guess all good things must end
Now you're on your way again
I guess you've always been
[Verse 2]
I can't hold on to a wandering heart
You can't be something that you aren't
And the part of you that I'll never know
Is the part of you that I love the most
[Chorus]
Guess I always knew I'd lose you
I guess all good things must end
Now you're on your way again
I guess you've always been
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Guess I always knew I'd lose you
I guess all good things must end
Now you're on your way again
I guess you've always been
[Outro]
Morning comes cold and bright
And fills this room with a silent light
