Second Shift

Verse 1  
The hall was nearly dark  
Your shadow near the mark  
I asked if time was right  
You nodded toward the night  

Chorus  
Second shift was slow  
But gave you room to go  
The clock said nothing real  
Just let us sit and feel  

Verse 2  
You spoke about the floors  
The tape you kept in drawers  
You said you’d bring it back  
But vanished in the track  

Chorus  
Second shift was slow  
But gave you room to go  
The clock said nothing real  
Just let us sit and feel  

Bridge  
I stayed an hour more  
Your scent behind the door  

Outro  
The lights came up too fast  
But some things always last
