In the Wee Hours

drop a flower on the ground, my love
and i'll be yours yesterday
give me some support in the wee hours
and i'll pay you back in spades

take me on the trestle over the river
watch the shit fall from my shoes
put a coat over me if i shiver

follow me down to the low district
pull me out of all my fights
give me an arresting look across the room
take me home and read me my rights

chorus
all i want is a little time
all i want is a piece of my mind
all i want tonight is a friend
all i want is someone to put me to bed
