On The Floor

When the lights go down in the city, getting real low

Settling in my room, I'm unnoticed

When the still comes in through my window, letting me go

I feel a calm, come over me, on the floor

On the floor

Where the rats all come away clean

There on the floor

Where the children all stomped and screamed straight out the door

Well I find myself on my knees

Begging please

When the lights go down in the city and everyone goes, to their room

Walking the trail to dreamland

When the lights go down in the city, something is roaring

I find myself waiting to believe

On the floor

Where the mice call shots in the corner that's where I'll be

When the crickets come home and sing their symphony

Well I find myself on my knees

Begging please

On the floor

Facing the things I've done here on the floor

Where the years have gathered and run that's where I'll be

And I find myself on my knees

Begging please
