Here I sit each morning,
Holding your picture in my trembling hands,
Trying to drink my morning coffee and feeling oh, so sad.
‘Cause I miss you so much.
Ever since you’ve been gone,
I fight the pain of having to go on
Without you in my life.
So I talk to your picture every time
I get to feeling so lonely and so blue
And I say to you,
“Good morning, beautiful.
Do you know you are my angel?
You breathe new life into this fire burning within
And make me feel as though I can love again.
Good morning, beautiful.”
Now here I stand on this boulevard of broken dreams.
I’m here without you in my lovin’ arms.
I’m just so lonely it seems.
Because through this madness of my life,
I’ve managed to lose
The one thing that has kept my heart alive
And that one thing was you, my beautiful angel,
And I say to you,
“Good morning, beautiful.
Do you know you are my angel?
You breathe new life into this fire burning within
And make me feel as though I can love again.
Good morning, beautiful.”
But here I am without you
Feeling so sad and oh, so blue.
I miss those beautiful eyes
And that million watt smile
That lights up as I walk through those doors.
Now I’m just sitting here alone,
Holding in my trembling hands,
My broken heart and my broken dreams
With no lovin’ arms to hold me
And I say to you,
“Good morning, beautiful.
Do you know you are my angel?
And now here I am without you,
How could life be so cruel?
Good morning, beautiful.
Do you know you are my angel?
You breathe new life into this fire still burning within
And make me feel as though I can love again.
Good morning, beautiful.
Good morning, beautiful.
You are my angel.
Good morning, beautiful."
Author notes
I hope you like this. I wrote this in about an hour this morning and have been tweaking it all afternoon. I can hear the words being sung in my head by someone like VInce Gill.
I used "Good Morning, Beautiful" and "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams" and "I'm Here Without You".

Yep! I could feel the rhythm!
Loved the part at first about the trembling hands - that just spoke so much about the emotions that were going into this piece - kinda added a vibrato!
A wonderful piece - Best of Luck to you in the contest!
I think It's a winner!

Hey Peaches,
Thanks, my dear, I appreciate you taking the time to read and comment. I'm glad that you found this to be an amazing piece.
I'm doing fine. My left knee is screwed up though. I popped it out of place last Monday and it's not really bouncing back like it has in the past.So I'm wearing a knee support and keeping icy hot pro therapy heat packs on it.
Anyway, thanks again. Love ans hugs...
