Your working day now complete
The world outside falls asleep, a cradle to the cold.
This situation tonight, I´m here, you´re there,
It´s not right, to have and not to hold.

The Nighshift lay before me.
The Nightshift make me stay away.

Just know that I would love to be, with you
But I can´t do right now you see.
There´s nowhere I would rather be, than with you.

An invitation to spend
The evening out with my friends I regretfully decline.
The chance to lay down beside
My baby for the night I had to let slip by.

The Nighshift lay before me.
The Nightshift make me stay away.

Just know that I would love to be, with you
But I can´t do right now you see.
There´s nowhere I would rather be, than with you.

I look around, I can´t calm down
When there´s so much to be done
So understand, it´s who I am
The Nightshift is what I´ve become.

Just know that I would love to be, with you
I can´t do right now you see.
There´s nowhere I would rather be, than with you.

When your down remember this
Close your eyes, make a wish cos it´s my alibi.
When your lost remember this
Close your eyes and picture this,
Sleep tonight, sleep tonight.
