soft siren have a knack for drawing you into their world, and “When Morning Comes Around” does exactly that. From the opening moments, the track settles into a hazy blend of pulsing rhythm, shimmering guitars and airy vocals that feels perfectly suited to its story of romance slipping through your fingers.
Written and arranged by Michael Coe with lyrics from vocalist Jacqueline Lee, the song centres on two people trying to hold onto a connection before daylight brings everything back into focus. It’s a familiar feeling, but one that’s expressed with genuine emotion rather than overblown drama. The repeated plea of “When morning comes around don’t go” lands every time, while the chorus, built around “Now I’m floating all summer long”, gives the song its emotional lift.
Lee’s vocal sits comfortably at the heart of it all. She never oversells the lyrics, letting the melody do plenty of the work, while the harmonies add an extra shimmer that keeps the chorus circling in your head. Around her, the arrangement keeps evolving without losing its sense of flow. The disco pulse gives the track a welcome sense of movement, while the psychedelic guitar textures colour the edges with just enough warmth and atmosphere.
One of the biggest strengths here is how naturally everything comes together. The production feels polished without becoming glossy, and every element has a clear purpose. It’s easy to imagine this finding a place on late-night playlists, but it also has enough energy to keep drawing you back for another listen.
“When Morning Comes Around” is the kind of song that quietly grows on you. The melodies linger, the chorus sticks and the emotional pull is undeniable. soft siren have delivered a beautifully crafted single that captures the rush of wanting a moment to last just a little longer, and it’s one that’s well worth spending time with.
