Nat “King” Cole
Tell Her in the Morning
[Spoken]
Funny how the moon is around whenever love appears
But when the stars go to sleep and the moon fades out of sight
Then what happens?

[Verse 1]
Last night I kissed her
I kissed my baby
And held her in the moonlight
I said I loved her
And promised we would never part

[Verse 2]
My baby told me
It was the moonlight
That made me say I loved her
She said the moonlight
Had hypnotised my faithful heart

[Chorus]
She said, "Tell me in the mornin'
What you tell me tonight"
She said, "Tell me in the mornin'
When the sun is shinin' bright"

[Verse 3]
I gotta wind up the old alarm clock
I gotta meet my baby
I gotta meet her before it's dark
[Chorus]
She said, "Tell me in the mornin'
What you tell me tonight"
She said, "Tell me in the mornin'
When the sun is shinin' bright"

[Verse 3]
I gotta wind up the old alarm clock
I gotta meet my baby
I gotta meet her before it's dark

[Verse 4]
I'm gonna kiss her
Till I convince her
That she's the only love of my life
I'm gonna tell her in the mornin'
What I told my baby last night
