Verse 1
COh it's early in the morning, it's raining and the streetlights
AmStreaming through my windows casting shadows on the ceiling
CThe room is oh so empty, stand against the wall
AmThe clock is ticking loudly, it's deafening in this quiet room
COh how long have I Ambeen waitingC?
Chorus
AmWhat am I to say? InsiFde, I don't want to stay
Oh, cause, AmI've been on the town, sick Fand tired of your frown
Verse 2
CI can hear you in the hallway, it's not unusual your their everyday
AmOnly now the hours late, every minute I've had to wait

CI saw you in the morning it was just like any other day
