Nightwatchman Songtext
von Mark Eitzel

I remember when I let you down
Every single day I think about your pain
How you lost your dignity
What good′s dignity passing in and out of a dream?
Is there a secret I'm supposed to know?
Is there a secret that I always miss?
What good′s dignity when you have to live
When you have to live within the boundary of a kiss?

And the nightwatchman, he never sleeps
Nightwatchman, eyes never close
Nightwatchman always gets the job done
Nightwatchman, is the night too long?


It's okay, everything you say is fine
But sooner or later you must decide
It's hard for me to leave you alone, to leave you alone
You got too much fear, you got too much pride
Who can watch the night as it passes by?
Who can live without needing anyone?
′Cause once I knew the secret to happiness, to happiness
I knew it once but now it′s gone

And the nightwatchman never needs to sleep
Nightwatchman, eyes never close
Nightwatchman always gets the job done
Nightwatchman, is the night too long?

Is the night too long?
Is the night too long?
Is the night too long?
Is the night too long?
