He's comin' 'round tonight
Catchin' the train out
Started work today
It's no fun but it paysOne thing that you're sure of
He won't ever let you downSupposed to leave at eight
But the sitters late
Times run out to go
To that evening showOne thing that you're sure of
He won't ever let you downHe could never hurt you
But it's so much to get involved, involvedI drowned in glory
To tell this story
Of self denial
And choices finalHe was there for you
When your ex shot through
But can you really count
On him stickin' round?One thing that you're sure of
He won't ever let you downHe could never hurt you
But it's so much to get involved, involvedI drowned in glory
To tell this story
Of self denial
And choices finalCan't change what happened
My youths been shattered
Now can I really
Bring him down with me?He can't play father to your son
When he's eighteen years youngI drowned in glory
To tell this story
Of self denial
And choices finalCan't change what happened
My youths been shattered
Now can I really
Bring him down with me?
