Lazard ft. Beverly Craven Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's four o'clock in the morning...

you light up...

you light up another cigarette

it's four o'clock in the morning
you light up another cigarette
and I pour the wine
it's four o'clock in the morning
and it's starting to get light
well I'm right where I wanna be
and losing track of time




but I wish that it was still
last night

What warehouse you work at? I wanna work there because here in ohio all they play just about any where is anything, but electronic music, it sucks. The only time I hear electronic music is occasionally at Walmart Vengaboys

I feel the same. The early 2000's used to be my best time.
