Well, I was sittin' here,
and thought I'd write a song,
I'm sending you the words,
so you can sing along,
you walked right out the door,
but you never really leave,
you left me wanting more,
when you left me here to grieve,
It's 5:00 A.M. again,
and I can't get to sleep,
'cause no matter what I do,
I can't seem to keep,
you out of my dreams,
so I just stay awake,
but even now it seems,
you're every breath I take,
By now you're catching on,
yes, I'm still missing you,
ever since you've been gone,
I've not known what to do,
so just lend me an ear,
give me one last plea,
because I need you here,
I need you next to me,
It's 5:00 A.M. again,
and I can't get to sleep,
'cause no matter what I do,
I can't seem to keep,
you out of my dreams,
so I just stay awake,
but even now it seems,
you're every breath I take,
Surely there's some part,
way down deep inside,
somewhere in your heart,
that you just try to hide,
I hope you're wearing thin,
and soon about to break,
I hope that you'll give in,
'cause I am still awake,
It's 5:00 A.M. again,
and I can't get to sleep,
'cause no matter what I do,
I can't seem to keep,
you out of my dreams,
so I just stay awake,
but even now it seems,
you're every breath I take,
I'm sorry for this letter,
I know I make no sense,
I thought that I'd be better,
but this pain is more immense,
my mind is left in shambles,
my heart is broke in shards,
I've lost all of my gambles,
now you hold all the cards,
It's 5:00 A.M. again,
I never got to sleep,
and when I think of you,
I break down and weep,
you've got me on the run,
stay the hell away from me,
after all you've done,
you still won't let me be,
It's 5:00 A.M. again,
and I can't get to sleep,
'cause no matter what I do,
I can't seem to keep,
you out of my dreams,
so I just stay awake,
but even now it seems,
you're every breath I take...
