• I'm not tired
    so don't ask me to sleep
    I won't hang up
    on these secrets we keep
    Are we the last of empty promises
    Is there something more to all of this
    I'm afraid to find that the stars won't compare
    The clock says it's getting late but I don't care

    Three o'clock is their time
    The moon and the clouds dance
    for a place in the sky
    Three o'clock is her time
    She's fighting for the chance
    to shine for us tonight
    It's the final showdown
    Our first moment of truth
    Is this real affection
    Or a story we used
    Because this is our time

    Listening to homemade lullabies
    As your voice tempts me to close my eyes
    Jealousy flashes from the moon above
    While the clouds cheer our hesitant love
    Only an audience, to battles we can't see
    Living in ignorance, with the signs I won't read

    Full speed ahead to the unknown
    Our nights spent sleeping by the phone
    Begging for the sky's forgiveness
    Cross our hearts and make these choices
    And your soft words can take me there
    The clock says it's getting late but
    I. Don't. Care.

    It's the final showdown
    Our first moment of truth
    Is this real affection
    Or another excuse
    Because this is...

    Finding out that love is never that easy
    As if the moon and clouds signed peace treaties
    Dreaming of your good night kisses
    I look up and ask "What is this?"
    We wait for the brightest in rhyme
    To drift away and dream of good times
