Six O'clock Lyrics - Everything Playing - Lovin Spoonful

There's something special 'bout six o'clock 

In the morning when it's still too early to knock 

And the dusky light shines down on the block 

And reflects up and down on the hands of the clock 

Six o'clock, six o'clock 

A few hours ago she was standing here 

Just watching the stars in our eyes and the lights as the tights disappeared 

And I could feel I could say what I want 

That I could nudge her and call her my confidante 

And now I'm back alone with just my shadow in front 

At six o'clock, six o'clock 

I went home and found that time to sleep was rare 

Just watching my eyelids, knowing my brain bids the night not to care 

I got up and got scufflin' around 

But somehow it just wasn't the same happy town 

And the bells didn't ring with the same happy sound 

At six o'clock, six o'clock 

If I go back where we parted 

Could I ever feel like that again 

Guess I'll just have to wait 'til tomorrow 

But what can I do 'til then 

Guess I'll go back home and just wait until dawn 

Yes, I had to learn going back where we were wouldn't help at all 

And I wish my head had been working right 

We'd have gone for coffee and talked all night 

And now I'm back alone, bein' twisted up tight 

Six o'clock, six o'clock 

Now I'm back alone 

Yes, now I'm back alone 

I'm back alone
