"Morning of My Life" (originally known as "In the Morning") is a song written by Barry Gibb in 1965 and later recorded by the Bee Gees and several other artists. It was recorded in 1966 during sessions for the album Spicks and Specks, and later was released as the opening track on the compilation Inception / Nostalgia in 1970. The first recording of the song to be released by any artist was by Ronnie Burns, first as a B-side to his Exit, Stage Right single in June 1967 and a month later on his Ronnie LP.

In 1969, Barry and Maurice Gibb performed an acoustic version with their sister Lesley, in a BBC Two special, made during the period when Robin Gibb had left the group to pursue a solo career.

They re-recorded the song on September 30, 1970 (by which time Robin had rejoined the group, during sessions for 2 Years On on the same day as "Every Second, Every Minute", "The First Mistake I Made" and the unreleased "Don't Forget Me Ida". This recording did not make the album but gave the song a whole new audience when used on the soundtrack of the 1971 film Melody along with other Bee Gees songs. Its first inclusion on a Bee Gees album was the compilation Best of Bee Gees, Volume 2 in 1973 and it subsequently appeared on the Tales from the Brothers Gibb and Mythology box sets. Throughout their career, the Bee Gees performed the song live on many occasions, most notably at the One Night Only concert in Las Vegas in 1997.
