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
