Night Shift

(앨범: II x II - 1970)

Evan by the light
She waits to hear my shoes
And through the night
She reads the Street Lamp News
You know she gets no news from me

And when the morning comes, end of my day
Dragging my way home

I can feel the cold
It whips across my face
I think of her, she brings me back to days
We laughed in warmer places then

But still the morning comes, end of my day
Lighting my way homeward

But when I see her smiling
'Cause I know that she loves me still
I say we'll stay together
'Cause I hope that we always will

Don't leave my side, she might
I work at night and Evan works by day
And though I see her not at all
She's got to know she's mine
That's all

You know she gets no news from me
And when the morning comes, end of my day
Dragging my way homeward

But when I see her smiling
'Cause I know that she loves me still
I say we'll stay together
'Cause I hope that we always will
And though I'm tired I say I'd wish you'd stay and talk to me awhile
I smile and she tries not to look so sad
She's off for work. I must be mad

Evan, if you knew the things I'd like to say
I'm here with you, though really I'm far away
We'll try to find another way

Another evening comes, end of her day
Dragging her way home
