4 am Words and Music by Jeff Cole ©2012

We’re putting on the Eskimo gear
Our words are turning colder.
Wake me at 4 in the morning
To say I got a problem with you.
You say I look for holes in the fence
I say I’m getting older.
Wake me at 4 in the morning
To say I got a problem with you.

Break :There’s nothing I can say to make it better right away.
My head is heavy for my pillow’s mercy
Let’s wait until the light of day.

The TV glow that plays to the room
The movie long since over
Wake me at 4 in the morning
To say I got a problem with you.
Her silhouette is moving toward me
her voice is getting closer.
Wake me at 4 in the morning
To say I got a problem with you.
Break.
Repeat 1st verse
Because the same labels used in the morning are the same that didn’t work last night.
Can’t you see I’m still yawning?
The truth that’s not yet dawning
Wake me at the 4 in the morning to say I got a problem with you.
Classic 1966 songwriting about relationships that have a fight before bedtime.
