3 AM

[Verse 1]

Well it's 3 AM again, like it always seems to be

Drivin’ northbound, drivin' homeward

Drivin' wind is drivin’ me

It just seems so funny that I always end up here

Walkin' outside in the storm while looking way up past the treeline

Been some time

[Verse 2]

Give me darkness when I'm dreamin'

Give me moonlight when I'm leavin'

Give me shoes that weren't made for standin'

Give me treeline, give me big sky

Give me snow-bound, give me rainclouds, give me [?] time

Just sometimes

[Verse 3]

Now you’re talkin’ in my room, but there ain't nobody here

’Cause I've been drivin' like a trucker, I've been wearin’ through the gears

I've been trainin' like a soldier, I've been burnin' through this sorrow

The only talkin' lately is the background radio

[Verse 4]

You were my friend and I was the same

Ridin' that hope was like catchin' some train

Now I just walk, well I don't mind the rain

Singin' so much softer than I did back then

[Verse 5]

Now the night, I think, is darker than we can really say

God's been livin' in that ocean, sendin' us all the big waves

I wish I was a sailor, so I could know just how to trust

Maybe I could bring some grace back home to the dry-land for each of us

[Verse 6]

Oh, say what you say, you say it so well

Just say you will wait, like snow on the rail

Combin' that train yard for some kind of sign

Even my own self just don't seem mine

[Verse 7]

Give me darkness when I'm dreamin'

Give me moonlight when I'm leavin'

Give me mustang horse and muscle, oh I won't be goin' gently

Give me slant-eye looks when I'm lyin', give me fingers when I'm cryin'

And I ain't [?] to cheat you, see I killed that damn coyote in me
