LYRICS:
three in the morning
making love
laid on the floor
of your apartment
birds eye view
of the two of us
face in makeup
and cheap fake blood

what do you think about when you think about love?
i’m dumbstruck when you’re tender
but it’s three in the morning
be in the moment
here in the moment
free in the moment

it tears through my head
does it haunt you too?
diamonds in the dark
in your old bedroom
you held me like my mother made me just for you
you held me so close that I broke in two

it tears through my head
does it haunt you too?
never really said
that i loved you too
lucky, lucky you
i’m fortune’s fool
such small words but they hit so huge

i don’t think i realise
just how much i miss you sometimes
we were young and so in love
we were just creatures in heaven
i don’t think i realise
just how much i miss you sometimes
for a moment we were just...
we were just creatures in heaven

three in the morning safe inside
bury me here in your laundry pile
at three in the morning
be in the moment
here in the moment
free in the moment

three in the morning over like that
go slow motion cut it to black
its merely a moment
here for a moment
here is the moment
here for a moment...

i don’t see the point in a subtle romance
ten tonne heartache sitting on your back
scared of the crack where the light comes through
i’m only really me when i’m here with you
and it gets in your head like a cosmic zoom
coat on the door like an old space suit
so long cowboy you’re so cool
cash in hand with a memory of you

creatures in heaven
back then we were just
creatures in heaven...
we were just creatures in heaven

"You held me like my mother made me just for you" is singlehandedly one of the best lyrics ever written. Glass Animals you never fail to amaze us 🥹

[hharliv]

Sounds an extension and perfect transition of dreamland 😭. GA is BACK!

[Lady_Katie_]

My boyfriend of 9 years is dying slowly and quickly from brain cancer and this song makes me think of every amazing moment we’ve ever had. PLEASE CHERISH EVERY SINGLE THREE IN THE MORNING MOMENTS!

[fiona]

there’s a huge rainstorm outside that is making this so cinematic :))) i am SO excited for the album

[Luketur]

I'm so genuinely moved by this song. Laying on my bed, headphones blasting, it's a full body experience. It's exactly how I experience life and love. It feels like this music was made for my soul. Fantastic first release of the new album, I'm so excited for the release 💜🌌 looking forward to the merch too, the aesthetics are perfect

[OvercastOliver]

I honestly love the lyrics "Lucky lucky you, because I'm fortunes fool" they're so catchy for no reason

[AssGlanimals]

Wavy Davey please consider at some point releasing the 9 minute version you mentioned in the Discord yesterday.

I want to hear the long Spacey Davey intro and the repetitive questioning, “whatcha think when you think about love?”. That part is really catchy and gets stuck in your head 😊

🙏🏻 🙏🏻

Glass Animals is so fucking back. I don’t think I realize just how much I miss Glass Animals until I hear one of their songs and they’re all I can listen to for the next year.

"i don't think i realize just how much i miss you sometimes" "you held me like my mother made me just for you" & "im only really me when i'm here with you" took me out...
sobbing on the public bus fr.

[arenbrdy]

[quince.cantdraw]

This is making me cry happy tears and I'm all here for it.

We all love Glass Animals so f***ing much<3

[Jenny-djpi]

Guys I’m 100% using this entire song lyric for my yearbook ‼️‼️

[OnlySlightlySaneOne]

I can't stop crying because all this song makes me feel are emotions of memories that never belonged to me in the first place but are what I've always wanted to feel.

I wish someday the memories can be mine too, but hearing this song makes me realize that someone else is looking for the memories too, and one day we'll find them together.

“such small words but they hit so huge”
crying.

[maxisme]

My boyfriend broke up with me and this is exactly what I needed. Everytime something awful happens in my life your music is always there to lift the weight off my chest

[mnca]

"i dont see the point in a subtle romance, 10 tonne heartache sitting on your back"
UR VOCALS DID NOT HAVE TO HIT SO HARD OH MY GOD ❤❤

[chloukscolor]

Another sad and touching song (about “Agnes”?), thank you Glass!

“You held me like my mother made me just for you” is deeply tender and beautiful

[descendingintodreams]
