3 A.M.


she say it�s cold outside and she hands me my raincoat
she�s always worried about things like that
she says it�s all gonna end and it might as well be my fault
and she only sleeps when it�s raining
and she screams and her voice is straining

she says baby
it�s 3 am I must be lonely
when she says baby
well I can�t help but be scared of it all sometimes
says the rain�s gonna wash away I believe it

she�s got a little bit of something, God it�s better than nothing
and in her color portrait world she believes that she�s got it all
she swears the moon don�t hang quite as high as it used to
and she only sleeps when it�s raining
and she screams and her voice is straining

she believes that life is made up of all that you�re used to
and the clock on the wall has been stuck at three for days, and days
she thinks that happiness is a mat that sits on her doorway
but outside it�s stopped raining
