Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's 3 a.m., I'm calling in to tell you that without you here
I'm losing sleep, I'm losing sleep
Ev'ry sound around this lonely house is leavin' me filled with fear
I'm losing sleep, I'm losing sleep
[Verse 2]
And I know what it's like
To be a child scared of the night
[Verse 3]
Please don't stop lovin' me, lovin' me
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Wantin' me, wantin' me like you do
[Verse 4]
Please don't carin' now, carin' now
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Carin' now, carin' now like you do
[Verse 5]
I know you have to work out there, it's for the best, but can't you see?
I'm losing sleep, I'm losing sleep
Remember tellin' you to go, you've always done what's good for me
I'm losing sleep, I'm losing sleep
[Verse 6]
And I know what it's like
To be a child scared, so scared of the night
[Verse 7]
Please don't stop lovin' me, lovin' me
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Wantin' me, wantin' me like you do
[Verse 8]
Please don't carin' now, carin' now
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Carin' now, carin' now like you do
[Verse 9]
Runnin' from the dark but I just can't hide
Dreadin' sundown, yeah, I'm dreadin' the night
Need you back here 'cause it feels so wrong, yeah
[Verse 10]
Oh, please don't stop lovin' me, lovin' me
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh
Lovin' me, lovin' me, darlin', no-oh-oh
[Verse 11]
Please don't stop carin' now, carin' now
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Carin' now, carin' now, no-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 12]
Please don't stop lovin' me, lovin' me
Ooh, no-oh
Can I be wrong?
(Wantin' me, wantin' me) like you do
[Verse 13]
It's 3 a.m., I'm calling in to tell you that without you here
I'm losing sleep, I'm losing sleep
