## Lyrics

**[Intro]**

(Ahh-ohh)

3, 3, 3. 3

**[Chorus]**

3 AM, and you're in my head

Your name spins around my brain

I could write songs about you and show you

I know that you wouldn’t even notice

**[Verse 1]**

Anytime you're around me, I wish you could stay

I don’t like the hiding, I hate the fake

I like that you're humble, It's love over hate

I just wanna show you its all up to fate

**[Refrain]**

Shut out your friends, they’re all unimportant

Shut out your friends, they’re all unimportant

**[Hook]**

I don’t like it when they’re around, I just want it to be us

I don’t like it when ur gone, happiness comes from ur hugs

**[Verse 2]**

Tell me what to do when you're not around

I wait for your message but don’t hear a sound, yeah

It looks im messing but i want a hug, yeah

Maybe next time you’ll understand my mind

**[Chorus]**

3 AM, and you're in my head

Your name spins around my brain

I could write songs about you and show you

I know that you wouldn’t even notice

**[Refrain]**

Shut out your friends, they’re all unimportant

Shut out your friends, they’re all unimportant

Shut out your friends, they’re all unimportant

Shut out your friends, they’re all unimportant

**[Outro]**

Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo

Ooo, ooo, ooo, hmm
