Wake you up as I'm going to bed I worked late but you understand It ain't worth crying It's our life but we make it right Go to Chili's on a Friday night And you french fries Yeah buy some french fries But if you wake and your awful job Looms heavy and you can't go on Understand when I say let Fletcher sleep I'll hold you in the evening time After your work and before mine A few hours to pretend you're always with me Night life ain't the good life But it's been working for my whole life It's all I know Can't get away but we pretend Vacation in our minds again We're on the beach In my van seat If you wake and your shitty job Looms heavy and you can't go on Don't cry when I say let Fletcher sleep I'll hold you in the evening time After your work and before mine A few hours to pretend you're always with me
