Ohh, early in the morning and it’s time I went down
So I go sown ’cause I know I can say anyway

Oh, I love you ’cause I want to
Oh, I love you ’cause I want to
Oh, I love you ’cause I want to
Oh, I love you ’cause I want to

Summer sun is shinin’ in my eyes as I go down
To feel you around me makes my life worthwhile night and day

Oh, I love you ’cause I want to
Oh, I love you ’cause I want to
Early in the mornin’, early in the mornin’, yeah

Lazy days drift away in time as I go down
To see you smile is to know what love means all the while

Oh, I love you ’cause I want to
Oh, I love you ’cause I want to
Oh, I love you ’cause I want to
Oh, I love you ’cause I want to
Down early in the mornin’
