Kids go out

To the corner shop

I took the time

To see them off

I went back in

To watch you sleep

They told me much

These seats are cheap

And the daylight goes away so soon

I've had my fill in the afternoon

So lets take a walk downtown

That's a problem of your own

You'll find a reason to stay at home

Tonight you're on your own

There is something you want to say

I'm not asking

Just sleep your nights away

While we go dancing toe to toe

I know

This is nothing

My old man used a poor attitude

He kept his things in the other room

And the daylight goes away so soon

I've had my fill by the afternoon

So lets take a walk downtown

Well that's a problem of your own

You'll find a reason to stay at home

Tonight you're on your own

There is something you want to say

I'm not asking

Just sleep your nights away

While we go dancing toe to toe

Lets take a walk downtown

Lets take a walk

Turns me off just to hear you talk

You've convinced me it's not your fault

I don't say or ask who told you

So just say no

There is something you want to say

I'm not asking

Just sleep your nights away

While we go dancing

There is something you want to say

I'm not asking

Just sleep your nights away

While we go dancing toe to toe
