Love Woke Me Up This Morning

Lyric: Johnny Mercer

Verse:

I yawned and rubbed my eyes
And what a sweet surprise
Was there awaiting me;
The early morning sun
Had made the shadows run,
And all that I could see
Were sunbeams playing on the floor;
For even though I'd locked the door,
Someone had come along and found the key,
And:

Chorus:

Love woke me up this morning,
This morning love tip-toed to my room.
Love went with me as I left my doorway,
Saying, "Do you mind if I go your way?"
What could I do for that old romancer,
How could I know what he had in view?
Then I saw your eyes and knew the answer:
Love woke me up to lead me straight to you.
