Lyrics:
Verse 1:
She says it's cold outside and she hands me my rain coat
She's always worried bout' 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
Chorus
She says baby
It's 3 am and I must be lonely
Well she says baby
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes
And the rains gonna wash away, I beleive in this
Verse 2:
Well she's got a little bit of something, god it's better than nothing
In a color portrait world where she believes that she's got it all hung
She swears the moon don't hang quite as high as it used to
She only sleeps when it's raining
And she screams, and her voice is straining
Chorus
She says baby
It's 3 am and I must be lonely
Well she says baby
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes
And the rains gonna wash away, I beleive in this
Verse 3:
She believes that life isn't made up of all that it used to
And the clock on the wall has been stuck at 3 for days and days
She thinks that happiness is a mat that sits on her doorway
But outside, it stops raining
Chorus
She says baby
It's 3 am and I must be lonely
Well she says baby
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes
And the rains gonna wash away, I beleive in this
Yeah, well it's 3 am I must be lonely (I must be lonely)
She says baby, well I can't help but scared of it all sometimes...
There it is, hope it's good. I'm gone. Thanks everybody.
