3 Am Lyrics

I hear the sound of a clock and the drip of running water.

I never thought it'd be like this.

It's 3 AM, and I can't sleep.

I had it all planned out; find a girl and get married.

Do things that make your dreams.

Oh look at me, what more could you need?

I knew that I could win a room because I've always had it,

But love is a scary thing.

It's what they never taught,

And I don't know now what's gotten me this far.

All I wanted was the world. All you wanted was me.

It's only in the end, when you were gone.

I didn't realize what I had lost.

These one night stands are meaningless,

But I'm laying in bed with a girl I just met at 3 AM.

I wish I would've loved you instead of being selfish

And being so obsessed with my dreams.

Oh look at me, I'm surrounded by the lonely.

I thought that I could win you back because I've always had it,

But love is a tricky thing.

It's what they never taught;

That when you lose what you love, you lose a piece of your heart.

All I wanted was the world. All you wanted was me.

It's only in the end, when you were gone.

I didn't realize what I had lost.

These one night stands are meaningless,

But I'm laying in bed with a girl I just met at 3 AM.

Every day I still learn from the mistakes that I have made.

Who knew that things would be this way?

I'm here because I wouldn't change.

I've fallen on my face, but watch me get up again.

It's only in the end, when you were gone.

I didn't realize what I had lost.

Now everything else is meaningless.

So I'm laying in bed with secret regret at 3 AM.
