Guadalcanal Diary - 3 AM lyrics

Gazing through bottles, tables of endless gla** Light shined through and it seemed like heaven Take all the bottles, and put them end to end You could touch the sky in another way When did you get up today? Never used to sleep so late Never mind it's always 3 am Smoky rooms and laughter, scattered bits of conversation Faces melt into the air like rain You can laugh he won't know, that's not him you see He's never really there and he doesn't know the time When did you get up today? Never used to sleep so late Never mind it's always 3 am Morning comes without a clue, he sees the day through ruined eyes Wonders who this stranger is, with fallen prophecy Every time the same old thing, someone comes in with the night Locks him in this foolish cell and throws away the key When did you get up today? Never used to sleep so late Never mind it's always 3 am
