In the wee small hours of the morning When the whole wide world is fast asleep You lie awake Thinking of the guy And never ever think of counting sheep When your lonely heart has learned its lesson You'd be there if only he would call In the wee small hours of the morning That's the time you miss him most of all
(Hilliard/Mann)
PS: I think this is one of the best examples of alliteration in all songdom!
To sound my horn I had to develop my embouchure I found that horn was a bit of a devil to play So artfully wound to give it a sound A beautiful sound so rich and round Oh the hours I had to spend before I mastered it in the end
Minds are subject to what should be done. Problems solved, time cannot be won. One hour a day. One hour at night. Sees crowds of people all meant for flight.

I Can't Drive 55 ~ Sammy Hagar
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love comes tumbling down
In the wee small hours of the morning
When the whole wide world is fast asleep
You lie awake
Thinking of the guy
And never ever think of counting sheep
When your lonely heart has learned its lesson
You'd be there if only he would call
In the wee small hours of the morning
That's the time you miss him most of all

We sat and talked there as an hour passed
Kenny Chesney
"Good Stuff"
In the midnight hour
She cried more, more, more
With 'er 'ead tucked underneath 'er arm she walks the bloody tower
With 'er 'ead tucked underneath 'er arm at the midnight hour
(my mom got that one - don't know the source)
Twenty-four hours can go so fast
You look around
The day has passed
When you're in love
Time is precious stuff
Even a lifetime isn't enough.

"On The Town")

Power and the money,
Money and the power
Minute after minute,
Hour after hour.
