Hello, Darling!

from Postcards EP by Elsie Eastman

/

about

The first happy love song I've ever written, about how much it sucks to get out of bed early and let your love sleep in. Once sung to my lover in a canoe.

lyrics

Oh, hello darling!
Tell me what you dreamt about last night
I doubt you've thought too much about it.
Oh, hello darling!
It's so nice to wake up next to you although
I barely sleep with you in my bed.

I tell you to roll over when I leave...
No need for you to get up, just go right back to sleep
And when I come back, then we'll talk--
It's okay that it's still dark
I might not say what's on my mind,
but you know what I mean.

Oh, hello darling!
It's so nice to see your sleepy face
next to mine on my pillow in the dark
Oh, hello darling!
If it were up to me, I'd never leave
I swear, this is not my hour.

I tell you to roll over when I leave...
No need for you to get up, just go right back to sleep
And when I come back, then we'll talk--
It's okay that it's still dark
I might not say "I love you"
but you know that's what I mean.

Oh, hello darling!
I'm sorry that I left you but I'm back again
to spend some time with you
Oh, you're my darling!
Let's just have a lazy day and lie in bed until it's half past two!

I tell you to roll over when I leave...
No need for you to get up, just go right back to sleep
And when I come back, then we'll talk--
It's okay that it's still dark--

I might not say "I love you"...
Oh, but when I kiss you...
you know that's what I mean :)
