Nightwatchman - Mark Eitzel

I remember how i let you down

Everything you say reminds me of the pain

How you lost your dignity

Passing in and out of a dream

Is there some secret i’m supposed to know

Is there some secret i’d always miss

'cause there’s no dignity when you have to live

Within the boundaries of a kiss

And the nightwatchman

Yeah he’s asleep

Nightwatchman

Oh come on tell me what’s wrong

Nightwatchman

Is the night too long

Is the same lie you gave me before

I don’t care anything you say is just fine

I’ll just sit and watch the traffic passing by outside

The will in the world it’s the prevailing tide

You’re supposed to watch the night as it passes by

You’re never supposed to need anyone

'cause once i knew the secret to happiness

I knew it was oh but now it’s gone

And the nightwatchman

Yeah he’s asleep

Nightwatchman

I can’t wake him up

Watchman

C’mon tell me what’s wrong

Nightwatchman

Is the night too long
