Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Four in the morning
Came without a warning
Everybody's got a place to be
I got holes in my conscience
Shot with a vengeance
I must have been a fool not to see
I need you bad
It's hard to live without your company
I need you bad
So bad I can't take it, you see
Oh, I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
There was a time when I knew you
I held my body to you
Made you feel like you never felt before
And now it's all in the distance
Still you keep resisting
I love you like never before
Oh, I need you bad
It's hard to live without your tender touch
I need you bad
So bad I guess you're playing me tough
Oh, I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
I guess I was going in the wrong direction
I guess I was thrown for a while
I need to see you smile
I need you so, yeah
I must have been going in the wrong direction
I guess I was thrown for a while
I need you bad
It's hard to live without your company
I need you bad
So bad I can't take it, you see
I need you bad
It's hard to live without your tender touch
I need you bad
So bad I want to tell you so much
Oh, I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
Came without a warning
Everybody's got a place to be
I got holes in my conscience
Shot with a vengeance
I must have been a fool not to see
I need you bad
It's hard to live without your company
I need you bad
So bad I can't take it, you see
Oh, I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
I can't take anymore
I can't fake anymore
It's such a hard time loving you
There was a time when I knew you

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
"So bad I guess you're playing me touch." Should be "tough" not "touch." Also, the credited songwriter above should be Jack Blades. Jerry Chesnut wrote a song of the same title that was recorded by another country singer in the early 1970s. This "Four In The Morning" song performed by Night Ranger was recorded in the mid-1980's and was not a cover.
