She wakes up from a dream, checks the mirror for reality |
|
She says 'come on girl, it's all in a day's work' |
|
Gets herself dressed just in time, disappears on the 8:05 |
|
Oh the whistle blows and it's all in a day's work |
|
'til she calls it a day |
|
Oh she smiles as he glances up from the swimsuit issue |
|
Oh she sighs as he walks away into the downtown day |
|
Day after day night after night |
|
Loneliness creeps in her window |
|
She locks the door, turns off the light |
|
Rehearsing a kiss on her pillow, she cries |
|
It's all in a day's work |
|
Turning pages while the memories pass |
|
Familiar faces from her senior class |
|
How the years go by when it's all in a day's work |
|
'dearest ruby, hope you reach your star |
|
Don't ever change, stay as sweet as you are' |
|
And when a teardrop falls she calls it a day's work |
|
She calls it a day |
|
Oh she waits by the telephone for the call he promised |
|
Oh it's late |
|
She puts her heart away for another day |
|
Day after day night after night |
|
Loneliness creeps in her window |
|
She locks the door, turns off the light |
|
Rehearsing a kiss on her pillow, she cries |
|
All in a day's work |
