Your Voice at 3AM

[Intro — faint phone static + piano] 3:07. Same time again. And I swear… I heard you say my name. [Verse 1] Your voice came through the silence Soft enough to make me freeze Like you were standing in the doorway Like you never really left me I reached across the empty mattress Before I knew what I had done For one stupid little second I forgot that you were gone Then the room became a stranger And the dark came rushing in Because losing you once was painful… Losing you again is worse somehow [Pre-Chorus] Was it memory? Was it dreaming? Was it something in my head? Why do you sound so alive When everybody says you’re dead? [Chorus] I hear your voice at 3AM Calling me like you did back then And every word sounds so damn real I almost answer you again Your voice at 3AM Breaks the silence in my room And for a moment I believe You found a way to come back through Then morning comes And proves me wrong again But tonight… I heard your voice At 3AM [Verse 2] I still keep your old voicemail Though I know it word for word Sometimes I press play just to remember How the world sounded with you in it There’s a laugh before the message There’s a breath before goodbye Little things nobody notices Until they’re all you have left alive And I hate that fifteen seconds Can destroy an entire night Because the moment that I hear you… I forget how to survive [Pre-Chorus] Maybe grief is just an echo That refuses to grow old Maybe love keeps finding ways To sound like someone you can hold [Chorus] I hear your voice at 3AM Calling me like you did back then And every word sounds so damn real I almost answer you again Your voice at 3AM Breaks the silence in my room And for a moment I believe You found a way to come back through Then morning comes And proves me wrong again But tonight… I heard your voice At 3AM [Bridge — piano only] If this is only memory… Please don’t take it away yet. I know it hurts. I know it isn’t real. But there are nights when hearing something that sounds like you… Hurts less than hearing nothing at all. (pause) So say my name again. Just once. I promise… I won’t ask you to stay. [Breakdown — heartbeat + distant vocal echoes] Three-oh-one Three-oh-two Every minute Looks for you Three-oh-five Three-oh-six Tell me when It stops like this Three-oh-seven… There you are. [Final Chorus — full emotional explosion] I hear your voice at 3AM And suddenly I’m yours again Before the hospital, before goodbye Before I learned how stories end Your voice at 3AM Still knows exactly where I break And I would lose another night For one more sound that grief can fake Because morning always takes you When the darkness finally ends So tonight… Please say my name… At 3AM [Outro — phone static fading] 3:08. Gone again. Goodnight.
