Lyrics: Shawn Mullins. Beneath The Velvet Sun. Lonesome, I Know You Too Well.

It's 3 a.m. and the snakes have moved in
I'm playing to 4 drunks and me
But the beer is cold and the memory is old
And the lights are so bright I can't see

And lonesome, I know you too well
You ring in my ears just like a bell
And your hollow like a dark empty well
Lonesome, I know you too well

Now time, it stands still and spins like a wheel
Whenever I see her around
But she doesn't know and I'll never show
There's too many eyes in this town

And lonesome, I know you to well
You ring in my ears just like a bell
And your hollow like a dark empty well
Lonesome, I know you

It's 3 a.m. and the snakes have moved in
