Written by Jerry Chesnut It's four in the morning and once more the dawning just woke up the wanting in me Wishing I'd never met her knowing if I'd forget her, How much better off she would be The longer I hold on the longer this goes on the harder that it's going to be But it's four in the morning and once more the dawning just woke up the wanting in me I've never deserved her God knows when I hurt her, that's the last thing that I want to do She tries but she can't tell how she feels but I know too well what she's going through If I really love her I don't know why I can't do the right thing and just let her be
But it's four in the morning and once more the dawning just woke up the wanting in me Last night I told her this time it's all over making ten times I told her goodbye Last night we broke up this morning I woke up and for the tenth time I'm changing my mind I saw more love in her eyes when I left her than most foolish men will ever see But it's four in the morning and once more the dawning just woke up the wanting in me Yes it's four in the morning and once more the dawning just woke up the wanting in me
