Robert Barnett Hello Mister Kerr Lyrics

I wake up in the morning
With the sunlight in my eyes
The promise of a new day
Makes me smile
But in a matter of minutes
A wave comes over me
Leaving me awash in anger
And anxiety

Hello Mister Kerr
It's good to see you today
Hello Mister Kerr
There's wine on the table
Why don't you stay

Every day's a new frustration
And an empty bottle of wine
Quiet down those racing thoughts
By living in a cloud to ease your mind
This is not at all how I expected it to be
A simple fall
Will solve it all
This is not living anyway

Hello Mister Kerr
It's good to see you today
Hello Mister Kerr
There's wine on the table
Why don't you stay

Lately, things are looking up
I couldn't have done it without your help
Why do you have to leave
Anyway
You say that I don't need you
Why do you leave me this way
I'll never forget you
For as long as I live

And the shoeboxes filled with memories
Can only take you to places tattered
By the hands of time

Goodbye Mister Kerr
We missed you today
Goodbye Mister Kerr
There's wine on the table
We'll drink to your name
