Lyrics
He works at night
He?s only trying to find what?s right
He?s living his life against the clock
It?s not right
But he knows when he sees her
That he?d like to take her home
Is there any kind of feeling, that he?s got wrong
He sees her in the distant
Then she stands right by his side
He?d like to turn and speak
But she just walks by
Chorus: He doesn?t look back
He puts a fight
He pretends that he?s not
He?s a lonely young man
Whose heart has been lost
But he can?t decide what he wants
He?s a lonely man
He?s a lonely man
She works on the corner
She works from 9 ?till 5
He knows all her movement
But he keeps out of sight
But he knows when he sees her
That he?d like to take her home
Can he ever stop what he?s feeling?
Or will it go on
Well she sees him pass the corner
And she likes what she sees
He never stops and talks
?cause he just walks away
Chorus
