Three AM in Evanston
words and music by me, dammit

You don't know the life I live
I'm not sure you could understand
I guess you know it's not like yours
You've got the whole world in your hand
Things don't just start and stop for me
When I bitch no one gives a damn
The guys all think you're something
I'm not part of any woman's plan

And yet I know that I could love you
If you want me to
And that's if you will let me in
I couldn't be high on the list
It would be a twist
But I'm sure that good things could happen

I sit alone in my room every night
You're stepping out with friends
I don't know all that many people
Your social circle never ends
I know we're opposites in some ways
But we're also much the same
Except the guys all think you're something
And the girls all think I'm lame

And yet I know that I could love you
If you want me to
And that's if you will let me in
I couldn't be high on the list
It would be a twist
But I'm sure that good things could happen

I guess the single life is for me
Since I know that you don't care
Although the feelings I have for you
I know of them you are aware
One last thing I should mention
Before I'm swept out the door
The guys all think you're something
But I think you're just a little more

That's why I know that I could love you
If you want me to
And that's if you will let me in
I couldn't be high on the list
It would be a twist
But I'm sure that good things could happen

That's right, I know that I could love you
If you want me to
And that's if you will let me in
I couldn't be high on the list
It would be a twist
But I'm sure that good things could happen
