Everything seems darker when you wake in the night worrying about things, especially affairs of the heart.
WAITING FOR THE END (THREE IN THE MORNING)

Three in the morning
A sepia version of the room
Dreams are still swarming
Is it too early to assume
The worst is over?
I’m waking to a brighter tune

I tried to save you
I’d have done anything I could
But you just slipped through
And floated away like dead driftwood
Play it over
But it won’t do me any good

CHORUS
Don’t sweat it
I think we’ll both survive
You don’t get it
Hope is still alive
Waiting for the end to arrive

I had a crash landing
You were there to break the fall
A misunderstanding
You brought my senses to it all
Now forgiven
Chalk it up as a close call

CHORUS

Love’s cruel charade
Hits you up
Then knocks you down oh so hard

Three in the morning
Fading feelings from a dream
Is it a warning?
The echo of a silent scream
A fresh beginning
Take it to a new extreme

CHORUS
