A Practical Joke

I never knew where you went after midnight
I never wanted to get involved
I wasn't there for the fighting
I didn't care if it got resolved

And when you called
Woke me up
Told me everything
I had to laugh
Until i was sick

I used to stay up every night
Until the stars came down
Wait until worst was over
Wait until you came around

And i could laugh about it

When you brought me there and you pleaded
I never thought it would take so long
I never had what you needed
But i was happy to play along

I picked you up
Drove you home
As the dawn was breaking
I had to laugh
Until i was sick

I used to stay up every night
Until the stars came down
Wait until worst was over
Wait until you came around
And i could laugh about it
