Today's Earwrom: "There's Got to be a Morning After" by Maureen McGovern
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Morning_After_(Maureen_McGovern_song)

"The Morning After" (aka "The Song from 'The Poseidon Adventure'") is an Academy Award-winning song, first released during May 1973. It was the first success for singer Maureen McGovern, and was used as the love theme for the film The Poseidon Adventure, which was released late the year before.

THat's an Academy Award winning earworm provided for you.

Here's a video for you

And the Lyrics to sing along with the song:
There's got to be a morning after
If we can hold on through the night
We have a chance to find the sunshine
Let's keep on looking for the light

Oh, can't you see the morning after?
It's waiting right outside the storm
Why don't we cross the bridge together
And find a place that's safe and warm?

It's not too late, we should be giving
Only with love can we climb
It's not too late, not while we're living
Let's put our hands out in time

There's got to be a morning after
We're moving closer to the shore
I know we'll be there by tomorrow
And we'll escape the darkness
We won't be searching anymore

There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
(repeat and fade out)


Interesting tidbits about this song:

This song won an Academy Award (Oscar) for best original song for The Posiden Adventure
Ironically, a character of the movie ridicules the song and performer's voice.
