Six O'Clock (2003 Remaster)

Six O'Clock (2003 Remaster) - The Lovin' Spoonful

There's something special 'bout six o'clock

In the morning when it's still too early to knock

And the dusty light shines down on the block

And reflects up and down on the hands of the clock six o'clock six o'clock

A few hours ago

She was standing here

Just watching the stars in our eyes

And the lights as uptights disappear

And I could feel I could say what I want

That I could nudge her and call her my confidant

And now I'm back alone with just my shadow in front

It's six o'clock six o'clock

I went home and found

That trying to sleep was a laugh

Just watching my eyelids

Knowing my brain bids the night not to pass

I got up and got scuffling around

But somehow it just wasn't the same happy town

And the bells didn't ring with the same happy sound

Six o'clock six o'clock

If I go back where we parted

Could I ever be like that again

Guess I'll just have to wait 'til tomorrow

But what can I do Tell me

Guess I'll go back home

And just wait until dawn

Guess I had to learn

Going back where we were wouldn't help at all

And I wish my head had been working right

We'd have gone for coffee and talked all night

Now I'm back alone gettin' twisted uptight

Six o'clock six o'clock

Now I'm back alone

Yes now I'm back alone

I'm back alone
