4am
so, i met that girl françoise
when i tried to get clear
living on some nervous island
somewhere far from here
won't you stay here for a while
i try to keep it warm
rest your head and have a tea
for you do seem so torn
it's 4am goodnight my love
i've just lit those stars above
we made love and talked to strangers
pirates, queens and thieves
and we danced and played our songs
till we did have to leave
it's 4am goodnight my love
i do love those stars above
some old ladies fold their hands
to pray for the new year
and we nearly found ourselves
that night that's been so clear
it's 4am goodnight my love
it's 4am goodnight my love
