[Verse 1]
Beneath the midnight caller
She thinks of paper green
You never hear them callin' her name
They just know where they've been
[Verse 2]
You never hear them holler
The tears no longer come
She reads a daily book of the past
That shows up everyone
[Chorus]
Grey years that show in her hair
Can't be but don't seem to care
She locks the door, and there's no one there
[Verse 3]
She sees a daytime stroller
Walk from the night before
And though she paints a smile on her face
He won't be back no more
[Verse 4]
She's got no saint to follow
She's got no place to go
Too proud to ask an old friend for help
Too proud to let him know
[Chorus]
Grey years that show in her hair
Can't be but don't seem to care
She locks the door, and there's no one there
[Outro]
Nobody (Nobody)
Nobody (Nobody)
Nobody's gonna help you now
