Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M. - Simon & Garfunkel

Written by：Paul Simon

I can hear the soft breathing

Of the girl that I love

As she lies here beside me

Asleep with the night

And her hair in a fine mist

Floats on my pillow

Reflecting the glow

Of the winter moonlight

She is soft she is warm

But my heart remains heavy

And I watch as her breasts

Gently rise gently fall

For I know with the first light of dawn

I'll be leaving

And tonight will be

All I have left to recall

Oh what have I done

Why have I done it

I've committed a crime

Broken the law

For twenty five dollars

And pieces of silver

I held up and robbed

A hard liquor store

My life seems unreal

My crime an illusion

A scene badly written

In which I must play

Yet I know as I gaze

At my young love beside me

The morning is just a few hours away
