It's 4am And I'm wide awake as I always am The world's sound asleep around me It came and went Whe whole day spent in a tail spin Now that I'm alone I can breathe I wish that I could fall asleep Without the thought of you Here's to hoping I make it through In the witching hour What keeps me up all night Is awaiting some reply And these love songs I write Drunken words spill the truth Sober lips tell lies The strangest power In the witching hour It's lingering This feeling that only you can bring In the garden of honest dreams you spoke Lines on a page How you sparkle and fade my heart away I wonder if you'd care to read what I wrote I wish that I could fall asleep without the thought of you Here's to hoping I make it through In the the witching hour What keeps me up all night Is awaiting some reply And these love songs I write Drunken words spill the truth Sober lips tell lies The strangest power In the witching hour If there was a doubt before, you sent the cure to prove You never really had a thing to lose In the witching hour What keeps me up all night Is awaiting some reply And these love songs I write Drunken words spill the truth Sober lips tell lies The strangest power In the witching hour This jaded night Behind these tired eyes of mine I knew I was right 'Cause drunken words spill the truth Sober lips tell lies The strangest power In the witching hour
