In the Night

In the night
It's so peaceful and quiet
As you sleep
You're so warm and secure

But in the hustle of the day
You're working so hard
Trying to make a dime
Doing all the things that it takes to survive
In a world that's too busy to enjoy the day
Just pushin' and a shovin'
Until it makes you pray

For the night
Where your dreams are waiting
Close your eyes and the world is yours

But then the sound of your alarm
Its ringing in your ear
You got to get up

There's time enough for coffee
And to rinse your cup
Then your out on the job
All day long

Everybody's fussin'
Until it makes you long
For the night
And your woman who is waiting

Then the hustle of the day
You're working so hard
Trying to make a dime
Doing all the things that it takes to survive
In a world that's too busy to enjoy the day
Just a pushin' and a shovin'
Until it makes you pray

For the night
Where your dreams are waiting
Close your eyes and the world is yours
I said in the night
The whole world is yours
In the darkness
In the stillness
