David Gray - 4 AM lyrics

Moon on the sea

The night is rattling

With burglar alarms, oh yeah

The night is blue

The night is blue

Flowers by your window side

Autumn is graceful

I'm laden with memory

And the wind has died

7 o'clock in the evening

Watching the TV show

Tears from your dark eyes

Your head against the sunset

And the harbour below

It's the cruellest thing

The cruellest thing

That I've ever known

It's time and circumstance

Taking their toll

There's no stones being thrown

Your bed was a warm bed

A warm bed in a cold room

Always the same pictures on the wall

And some love in the morning

With your dog at your pillow

And a half empty bottle of baby oil

7 o'clock in the evening

Moon on the sea

Oh, the night is rattling

With burglar alarms

Oh, they're ringing for me

It's the cruellest thing

The cruellest thing

That I've ever known

It's just time and circumstance

Taking their toll

There's no stones being thrown
