(Verse 1) It’s three in the mornin’, neon’s hummin’ low, Rain taps the window like it’s got nowhere to go, Got a half-burnt cigarette and a heart full of doubt, Ever since you left, baby, the light’s gone out. (Verse 2) Piano man’s playin’ like he knows my pain, Every single note fallin’ down like rain, I stir my drink, watch the ice cubes drown, Just like my love when you left this town. (Chorus) I got those three a.m., can’t-sleep blues, Nothin’ left in this world but these worn-out shoes, Every road I walk just leads to you, And I don’t know what a lonely man can do. (Verse 3) Your perfume lingers in the back of my mind, Like a ghost that I just can’t leave behind, Tried to forget you, Lord, I gave it a try, But your memory sticks like a sad goodbye. (Bridge) Now the clock keeps tickin’, don’t care ‘bout me, Time moves on, but I just can’t be free, If love’s a gamble, I lost my last dime, Bet it all on you… now I’m servin’ my time. (Chorus) Yeah, them three a.m., heartache blues, Singin’ low with nothin’ left to lose, Every tear falls in a slow, sad rhyme, Keepin’ rhythm with this heart of mine. (Outro) Sun’s gonna rise, but it won’t feel right, Ain’t no daylight gonna fix this night, So I’ll sit right here till the shadows fade, Drownin’ in the love we never made.
