The Wee Hours Lyrics

End of summer

Nights are getting colder

How I enjoy spending them with you

Somehow when you're around me

My vision gets cloudy and I seem to lose my way with words

In the wee hours of the morning, beneath clear September skies

In the middle of the evening, side by side your hand in mine

When you held my hand and wrote my name in the sand

You were right about me in the end

I tend to find a mystery in your eyes

In that moment when your eyes look into mine

In the wee hours of the morning, gazing up at the stars

In the latest hours of the evening, beneath Jupiter and Mars

It's agony I'm facing, but it's your love that I'm chasing

So you grow like a cancer in my heart

I wouldn't believe you if you'd told me I wasn't dreaming

When you fell fast asleep in my arms

In the wee hours of the morning, feeling your body next to mine

Soon the sun will be rising, then you'll have to leave my side
