I take the road until it ends, I dream of places that I've never been I turn a ghost into a friend, I dream of seeing you again Ooh, ooh, ooh, your mind's racing Ooh, ooh, ooh, dragging you down, down, deep, down, down Down, down, deep, down, down There's a sorrow in your soul that I recognize I've been followed by the same ghost for all my life Darling, I hate to see you cry like this, no matter how far it gets I'll take the graveyard shift, the graveyard shift Your thoughts are out of your control They take you places that you're never meant to go You don't have to fear, though We could walk each other home Ooh, ooh, ooh, your mind's racing Ooh, ooh, ooh, dragging you down, down, deep, down, down Six feet underground There's a sorrow in your soul that I recognize I've been followed by the same ghost for all my life Darling, I hate to see you cry like this, no matter how far it gets I'll take the graveyard shift Tell me what's heavy on you, please don't apologize I'll live to be the one you called in the dead of night There's not a place I wouldn't meet you in, no matter how dark it gets I'll take the graveyard shift I'll take the graveyard shift
