  • At dead of night when strangers roam
    The streets in search of anyone who´ll take them home
    I lie alone, the clock strikes three
    And anyone who wanted to could contact me
    At dead of night ´til break of day
    Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake
    It´s much too late

    Where´ve you been?
    Who´ve you seen?
    You didn´t phone when you said you would
    Do you lie?
    Do you try
    To keep in touch? You know you could
    I´ve tried to see your point of view
    But could not hear or see
    For jealousy

    I never knew time pass so slow
    I wish I´d never met you or that I could bear to let you go
    At dead of night ´til break of day
    Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake
    It´s much too late

    Where´ve you been?
    Who´ve you seen?
    You didn´t phone when you said you would
    Do you lie?
    Do you try
    To keep in touch? You know you could
    I´ve tried to see your point of view
    But could not hear or see

    Where´ve you been?
    Who´ve you seen?
    You didn´t phone when you said you would
    Do you lie?
    Do you try
    To keep in touch? You know you could
    I´ve tried to see your point of view
    But could not hear or see
    For jealousy

    Where´ve you been?
    Who´ve you seen?
    You didn´t phone when you said you would
    Do you lie?
    Do you try
    To keep in touch? You know you could
    I´ve tried to see your point of view
    But could not hear or see
    For jealousy

    Where´ve you been?
    Who´ve you seen?
    You didn´t phone when you said you would
    Do you lie?
    Do you try
    To keep in touch? You know you could
    I´ve tried to see your point of view
    But could not hear or see
    For jealousy
    I never knew ´til I met you Writer/s: Christopher Lowe, Neil Tennant
