it ll get you on the last bus home get you at the discount bend it ll get you on the old dancefloor get you when the party ends oh 4am is the time when you were mine frozen in deepest sleep for only i to keep now there ain t a hiding place on earth where loneliness ain t been first it ll get you hanging out your clothes get you when you wash your hair it ll get you as you re making plans catch you trying to climb the stairs oh 4am is the time when you were mine frozen in deepest sleep watching the morning creep now there ain t a hiding place on earth where loneliness ain t been first hard times hole in my heart who stole the sun and left me alone again give me a guiding light stretch of sky and the hand on my shoulder singing hard times hole in my heart who stole the sun and left me alone again give me a guiding light stretch of sky and the hand on my shoulder oh 4am is the time when you were mine frozen in deepest sleep for only i to keep now there ain t a hiding place on earth where loneliness ain t been first oh no there ain t a hiding place on earth where loneliness ain t been first been first been first
