Nitebird Lyrics

I WAIT OUTSIDE DAVY'S LOCAL MART I SEE TOMMY AND BOBBY
ON THEIR WAY TO THE PARK
THE WAVE OVER FROM ACROSS THE STREET
THEY'VE STOPPED ASKING ME WHY WE NEVER MEET
THE PREACHER GIVES ME A DOLLAR,SAYS TO GIVE IT TO TOUR MA
TELL HER YOU FOUND IT NOT WHER YOU GOT IT FROM
WE BOTH KNOW WHAT SHES LIKE,SHE'LL BURN IN HELL FOR HER FOOLISH PRIDE
THERES NO SILENCE AS WE WALK THE COUPLE MILES HOME
WHEN YOUR TALKING SO MUCH IT DONT TAKE SO LONG
WITH BOTH SUPPER AND MY SCHOOL WORK DONE
I HEAR YOU CALLING TO ME TO PUT THE KETTLE ON
EVERY NIGHT HER COFFEE GOES COLD
WHILE SHE FALLS ASLEEP ON THE COUCH
I GET A BLANKET FROM THE ROOM AND TURN THE RADIO DOWN LOW

NITEBIRD,NITEBIRD,I KNOW THE REASON YOU GOTTA WORK
BUT IT DONT MAKE IT ANY EASIER,NITEBIRD WONT YOU COME ON HOME

THE RADIO'S ON YOUR ONLY GONE A WHILE BUT I KNOW WHAT
CAN HAPPEN WHEN YOUR OUT AT NITE
YOU ALWAYS PROMISE ME YOUR COMIN HOME BUT I WONT HOLD
YOU TO THAT CAUSE NO-ONE EVER KNOWS
ITS LIKE A PACT,YOU NEVER SAY AND I NEVER ASK
I KNOW YOU WORK DOWNTOWN BUT MOMMA I DON'T KNOW WHEREABOUTS
WHEN I GROW UP WELL BE LEAVING HERE,GONNA TAKE MOMMA WHERE THE AIR IS CLEARDave Martyn - Nitebird - http://motolyrics.com/dave-martyn/nitebird-lyrics.html
ILL BE THE DOCTOR SHE WANTED SO BAD,GIVE HER ALL SHE DESERVES
BUT NEVER HAD
I SEE IT CLESR WHEN WERE ON THE STREETS HOW THE MEN
LOOK AT YOU THAT WE MEET
YOU ALWAYS SAY YOU NEVER LONELY,WITH A MAN LIKE ME IM YOUR ONE AND ONLY

NITEBIRD,NITEBIRD,I KNOW THE REASON YOU GOTTA WORK
BUT IT DONT MAKE IT ANY EASIER,NITEBIRD WONT YOU COME ON HOME

I HEAR YOU AND NANNA TALKING LOW,
IN THE KITCHEN WHEN YOU FINALLY MAKE IT HOME
SHE WORRIES FOR YOU WE BOTH DO
YOU SILHOUETTE BLOCKS THE LIGHT THAT COMES INTO MY ROOM
'WHAT TIME IS IT MOMMA',YOU SAY ITS LATE AND I SHOULD BE SLEEPIN
YOU PUT YOUR HAND ON MY EYES, TELL ME YOUR DREAMS SON
AND ILL TELL YOU MINE
AS WE TALK OUR DREAMS BECOME ENTWINED,
A FAR OFF PLACE TO LEAVE THE PAST BEHIND
IVE SEEN THEM IN THE HAZY LITE,THOSE TEARS THAT ESCAPE YOUR EYES

NITEBIRD,NITEBIRD,I KNOW THE REASON YOU GOTTA WORK
BUT IT DONT MAKE IT ANY EASIER,NITEBIRD WONT YOU COME ON HOME
