Sleep comes creeping in
At four in the morning
Sneaking up the stairs
Shoes in her hands
Don't you know what time it is?
I've been worried 'bout you, baby
Seems the least that you could do was
Phone to say you'd be late
Sleep keeps me awake all night
I wonder where she is right now
I told her if she's late to call
Or don't come home at all
Last week it was one AM
This week it was two AM
Last night it was three AM
And tonight it's four AM
You never mind about that now
Come lay down beside me baby
Let me hold you in my arms
Let me hold you in my arms
Let me kiss you, kiss (G)you baby
Let me hold you in my(G) arms
ANd kiss you baby
