4am Lyrics


Awake in bed at 4 a.m.
Awake in bed 'cause lately sleep ain't been my friend
Dreams leave me with no happy end
Instead it all keeps playing and repeatingAnd even though I might complain
You know I feel the same old way about you, babe
I'll love you till the very end
I love you, I can't see my life without youWe might be a long way from heaven
But I won't give in, no, not like this
I feel it is my Saturn return
There's a lot we could win, just not like thisI see us pass the sleepless nights
I see us pass the silent fights and arguing
We'll make it through the distant phases
We'll make it through the stomach aches and quiet tearsSomehow we're back to here again
Somehow we're back to question me or believing
There's never been a silent end
There's never been a mountain span without youWe might be a long way from heaven
But I won't give in, no, not like this
I feel it is my Saturn return

There's a lot we could win, just not like thisSilky soft words are forgotten but you treat me
Come inside, I'll keep you warm
Though it hurts me, leaves me torn
Every time you lend a hand
Our love outlasts the storm again, again, againWe might be a long way from heaven
But I won't give in, no, not like this
I feel it is my Saturn return
There's a lot we could win, just not like thisYes, we might be a long way from heaven
But I won't give in, no, not like this
I feel it is my Saturn return
There's a lot we could win, just not like this

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
