[Verse 1] It was two in the morning Ten words, one text: "When you have a moment Cause I am feeling so bad" [Pre-Chorus 1] "Yeah I will hit you back soon" Is the only thing I sent to you It's simple when you put it into words: no I wasn't there when you were hurt [Chorus] But I know when the night is long you feel like you can't go On with the charade, the day to day gets bleak Watch the bodies all around you fall like snow But I'm standing here today babe, yeah you know that you gotta stay [Verse 2] Yeah, if the time is the word we use to name this strife Of the world k**ing itself to somehow stay alive
Tell me how in the turmoil of this endless fight Do you always recognize me? [Verse 3] It was two in the morning My room in Manhattan You and I are talking Of course, as always, we're laughing [Pre-Chorus 2] This love that we share is so true There's no more doubt baby boy ‘cuz we're proof Of something special and so magic and so perf Alive with you now here on this earth [Chorus] But I know when the night is long you feel like you can't go On with the charade, the day to day gets bleak Watch the bodies all around you fall like snow But I'm standing here today babe, yea you know that you gotta stay
