Lyrics

In Wee Small Hours Of The Morning
When the whole wide world is fast asleep
You lie awake and dream about the girl
And never even think of counting sheep.

When you lonely heart has learned its lesson
You'd be hers if only she would call
In the wee small hours of the morning
That' the time, you'll miss her most of all.

Trumpet Instrumental

When you lonely heart has learned its lesson
You'd be hers if only she would call
In the wee small hours of the morning
That' the time, you'll miss her most of all.
