It's four in the morning and once more the dawning 
Just woke up the wanting in me 
Wishin' I'd never met her, knowing if I forget her 
How much better off she would be 
The longer I hold on, the longer this goes on 
The harder that it's going to be 
But it's four in the morning and once more the dawning
Just woke up the wanting in me I'd never desert her,
God knows when I hurt her 
That's the last thing that I want to do 
She tries, but she can't tell how she feels 
But I know, too well, just what she's going through 
If I love her so much, I don't know why I can't do 
The right thing and just let her be 
But it's four in the morning and once more the dawning
Just woke up the wanting in me Last night I told her,
"This time it's all over" 
Making two times I've told her goodbye 
Last night, we broke up, this morning I woke up 
And for the fifth time, I'm changing my mind 
I saw more love in her eyes when I left her 
Than most foolish men will ever see 
An' it's four in the morning and once more the dawning
Just woke up the wanting in me 
It's four in the morning and once more the dawning 
Just woke up the wanting in me 
Wishin' I'd never met her....
