It's five AM and I'm cold and alone
I dream of the past but the past is gone
I cry for the family who don't remember my name
I cry for myself that is so long gone
I wish I could reach back and hold you again
I little boy with dark brown eyes
I teenage girl with bright red hair
All the games that we played
All the love that we shared
Can you hear my pain tonight?
I know a man shouldn't cry
But I'm crying
It's five Am and I'm cold and alone
I dream of the past but the past is gone
I cry for the friends who don't remember my name
I cry for myself who is so long gone
You've all moved on with lives of your own
But doesn't what we had me anything to you?
Those moments we shared are more precious than gold
More precious than gold to me
Can you hear my pain tonight?
I know man shouldn't cry
But I'm crying
It's five AM and I'm cold and alone
I dream of the past but the past is gone
I cry for the lovers who don't remember my name
I cry for myself who is so long gone
I wish I could reach back and hold you again
I wish I could call you but that just wouldn't do
A woman so dark and beautiful
Another with eyes that could burn through your soul
Doesn't it mean anything the love that we shared?
Doesn't it mean anything to you?
Why don't you ever call my name?
You say a man shouldn't cry
But I'm crying
It's five AM and it's so cold in here
I dream of the past but the past is gone
I loved you so much, wish you were still my friend
I loved you so much but I just couldn't show it
You thought I'd turned away but I was losing myself
And now this isolation is freezing my soul
And I call your name tonight
But you don't hear me call
I cry for the ones who never call my name
I wonder will you be next
I know a man shouldn't cry but I'm crying tonight
I'm reaching out for you
Please take my hand I need you tonight
Please take my hand I'm crying tonight
I'm crying tonight
I'm crying tonight
I'm reaching out for you
