5 O'clock in the Morning - Count Basie, Joe Williams

5 o’clock in the morning

And there is no one on the street but me

Well, it’s 5 o’clock in the morning

And there is no one on the street but me

And I am evil, tired and lonely

And you’re not where you ought to be

I’d be so happy, baby

If you are where you ought to be

This morning, I’d be so happy, baby

If you were where you ought to be

This morning, my whole world is empty, darling

Because you’re not here with me

Don’t think that I don’t love you

'Cause I don’t write you everyday

Don’t feel that I don’t need you

Because I haven’t much to say

I love you and I need you

So bad that I could cry this morning

Until you are here with me, baby

Well, there’s no way in the world for me to be satisfied
