Well, I like you best in the morning
Well, I hate you in the afternoon
When late night comes, I love you once again

But I can't seem to figure out
What it means each time we scream and shout
What you say the things that you could see

And that's why we find each afternoon
As shadows creep across the room
Love me once, I loved you twice the same

So the lesson here is plain to see
By the bank, you come and be with me
But only when the afternoon's asleep

And that's why we find each afternoon
As shadows creep across the room
Love me once, I loved you twice the same

So the lesson here is plain to see
By the bank, you come and be with me
But only when the afternoon's asleep

Don't come until the afternoon's asleep
Don't come until the afternoon's asleep
