It'll get you on the last bus home,
Get you at the discount bin,
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,
You stole the sun and left me alone again,
Give me a guiding light,
Stretch your sky and the hand on my shoulder, singing,

Hard times, hole in my heart,
You stole the sun and left me alone again,
Give me a guiding light,
Stretch your 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

God knows what is hiding in that weak and drunken heart
I guess you kissed the girls and made them cry
Those hardfaced Queens of misadventure
God knows what is hiding in those weak and sunken eyes
A fiery throng of muted angels
Giving love and getting nothing back

People help the people
And if you're homesick, give me your hand and I’ll hold it
People help the people
And nothing will drag you down
Oh and if I had a brain, Oh and if I had a brain
I’d be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
That turned, all those good hearts away

God knows what is hiding, in that world of little consequence
Behind the tears, inside the lies
A thousand slowly dying sunsets
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
I guess the loneliness came knocking
No one needs to be alone, oh save me

People help the people
And if you're homesick, give me your hand and I’ll hold it
People help the people
Nothing will drag you down
Oh and if I had a brain, Oh and if I had a brain
I’d be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
That turned, all those good hearts away

People help the people
And if you're homesick, give me your hand and I’ll hold it
People help the people
Nothing will drag you down
Oh and if I had a brain, Oh and if I had a brain
I’d be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
That turned, all those good hearts away
