Night Shift
Staring out my window every night As I’d watch you go Wave goodbye and you’d get in the car I wouldn’t see you till tomorrow A little girl waiting up To watch her dad leave for the night shift A funny story now from years ago Long before I’d have to know All the troubles that a life can bring All the things that I was far too young to see Spin in my head and they keep me up Is this what life is all about? No one said that it was hard getting older No one tells you all the right ways to go wrong No one said that things could change so suddenly Now I’m the one waking up to find The right way to the wrong place The right way to the wrong place I walk home alone most nights On a path of city lights Step after step and I count each line Tell myself that I am just like you Gave me your eyes and a reason to smile And a life I can’t forget Letras de canciones No one said that it was hard getting older No one tells you all the right ways to go wrong No one said that things can change so suddenly Now I’m the one waking up to find The right way to the wrong place The right way to the wrong place Staring out my window every night At city lights and shadows in between It’s a maze, it’s a game we play Growing old, it makes me sick I walk alone on an empty path Full on things that I will never find Knowing that there’s such a long way left Close my eyes and see it all The headlights shine as you pull away I come back to the window Still the same little girl Watching her dad leave for the night shift From Letras Mania
