3 AM

She says 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 says baby
It's 3 am, I must be lonely
When she says baby, yeah
Well I can't help
But be scared of it all sometimes
Says the rain's gonna wash away
I believe it

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, hey
But outside
It's stopped raining, yeah

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 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
