Goodnight

It's 12 o'clock at night
I stumble from the bar
The alleyway is dark
Can I make it to my house alright?
There have been times I do believed
I put my life in jeopardy
Hey, hey, hey, goodnight

Tomorrow after work
I'll go back to my place
Turn the TV on
Lose myself in outer space
Tell me what I must consume
Electronic lover in my living room
Hey, hey, hey, goodnight

And I look for inspiration up above
Returning to the places, as a child that I loved
But mom's not in the kitchen anymore
No roller skates, no baseball cards lying in the door
Hey, hey, hey, goodnight

And still you call me up
"Would you like to come with me
For dinner and a show?
We'll talk politics, philosophy"
But the eloquence that served me well
So many years before, serves me no more
Goodnight

Sometimes sleep can ease your pain
But you can only sleep so long
Before it's night again
You slept the day away, my friend
Splash some water on your face
Get out and mingle with the human race
Hey, hey, hey, goodnight

And I look for inspiration up above
Returning to the places, as a child that I loved
But mom's not in the kitchen anymore
No roller skates, no baseball cards lying in the door
Hey, hey, hey, goodnight

Hey, hey, hey, goodnight
