Morning Starship - Morrissey

Who was that sneaking up the stairs?

Taking a hairpin from her hair

A vision of the locks fallin' down

Crossed my mind and played with the sound

Of tapping, gentle tapping at my morning starship

The crystal glint of the turning glass

The creaking sound of the rusted latch

As she slowly opened the door

The darkness told me nothing more

Except to say that she was near my morning starship

She stood within the threshold silently

A ray of moonlight caught her eyes

Without a word she said, «Could I come in?»

And I said, «Well, you’re in already

You might as well sit down and stay awhile»

She made her way across the room

Her golden hair eclipsed the moon

The perfect head framed in silver blue

Found its way to mine and then I knew

The girl, the girl, the girl had flown my morning starship

She’s gone away, what can I do?

She took the key, she’s got the clue

Mysteries unfold with the latch

What she knows I’ll never forget

The girl, the girl, the girl has flown my morning starship

Yeah, she travels with me now in my morning starship

Oh, boom, boom, boom, morning starship
