Watery eyes fall like a landslide
You're not here tonight
Right when I need you
There's nowhere to hide
Nowhere to lay my head
Run myself dry
I'm lonely, but I don't wanna be

The boyfriend who's needy
That counts up to three
Snaps, and you see me
It's not what it seems
I'm just alone in the city of dreams
And want you to be here

It's 5 o'clock somewhere right now
I hate that we're not hanging out
Chasing a feeling, fighting off sleep
And the taste of your lips on my mouth
My little parallel line
We're likе two passing ships in the night
The world keeps on turning
What you desеrve is a lover to love you on time

It's not easy to find comfort in
things that I don't recognize
Telling the truth, but I'm caught in a lie
Called up, no answer, don't need a reply
Just lonely and fired up

It's not on your back, it lives over mine
So don't overreact, darling, I'm fine
And I mean it, can't you see it?

It's 5 o'clock somewhere right now
I hate that we're not hanging out
Chasing a feeling, fighting off sleep
And the taste of your lips on my mouth
My little parallel line
We're like two passing ships in the night
The world keeps on turning
But what you deserve is a lover to love you on time

Yeah
So I'm gonna love you on time
Yeah, yeah
I'm gonna love you on time
Yeah
Yeah, I'm gonna love you on time, yeah
Ooh
I'm gonna love you on time

It's 5 o'clock somewhere right now
I hate that we're not hanging out
Chasing a feeling, fighting off sleep
And the taste of your lips on my mouth
My little parallel line
We're like two passing ships in the night
The world keeps on turning
But what you deserve is a lover to love you on time
