Kids go out 
To the corner show
I took the time
To see them off
I went back in 
To watch you sleep
They told me much
These seats are cheap

And the daylight goes away so soon 
I’ve had my fill in the afternoon
So lets take a walk downtown
That’s a problem of your own
You’ll find a reason to stay at home
Tonight you’re on your own
There is something you want to say
I’m not asking 
Just sleep your nights away
While we go dancing toe to toe

I know
This is nothing
My old man used a poor attitude
He kept his things in the other room

And the daylight goes away so soon 
I’ve had my fill by the afternoon
So lets take a walk downtown
Well that’s a problem of your own
You’ll find a reason to stay at home
Tonight you’re on your own
There is something you want to say
I’m not asking 
Just sleep your nights away
While we go dancing toe to toe

Lets take a walk downtown
Lets take a walk
Turns me off just to hear you talk
You’ve convinced me it’s not your fault
I don’t say or ask who told you
So just say no

There is something you want to say
I’m not asking 
Just sleep your nights away
While we go dancing 
There is something you want to say
I’m not asking 
Just sleep your nights away
While we go dancing toe to toe
