Adrian Borland - Four lonely hours away Lyrics

Waiting for the early trains
Kicking cans in the square
Funny how it always rains
On people going nowhere

There is something you don't understand
This city used to be your friend
You're wondering where the life has gone
When did the party end?

Seems so far to the morning light
So long until the dawn
You're a lifetime away from another day
You wonder will it ever come
It's four lonely hours away

The night has lost its shine
The neon's fading glow
It's no time to be caught standing still
At the chill hits four below

The city's gone to sleep
A million dreams removed
Suddenly all the emptiness
Is bearing down on you

Seems so far to the morning light
So long until the dawn
You're a lifetime away from another day
You wonder will it ever come
It's four lonely hours away
