I wrote this song when I was driving home through the lake district late at night. It was a beautiful night and all I could think about was someone who I was in love with for a long time .. I wouldn't let myself believe that I really felt like that about him, until he had to go away somewhere and then I eventually realised the strength of my feelings, but then it was too late.. he'd gone.
Lyrics
The 3am clouds hang like
Herringbone waves
Superimposed on the sky of dark smoky grey
The cold black crags lie ahead and beckon me
While the mist lies in the field
Low and safe
When I close my ears to the world
I hear you laughter
When I close my eyes
I see your smile
When everything seems to be falling apart
I see your eyes in those 3am stars
& I realise
Just how lucky we are
In every word and every song
Directed from my heart to you
You don't even see me at all
Except in the way I want you to
But when I close my ears to the world
I hear you laughter
When I close my eyes
I see your smile
When everything seems to be falling apart
I see your eyes in those 3am stars
& I realise
Just how lucky we are
