In My Line of Work lyrics

You deserve everything

Everything that you need

And all that you long for

But I, I'm rarely around

Every train feels outbound

I wish I could give you so much more

I must roam

Follow the road I've chosen

Leave our home

The land is dark and frozen

Night by night

You're still in my mind

Everything I must do

Is your burden too

Still the road goes on and on

We just have to play along

Days are lonely, nights long

In my line of work

This is how the story goes

Highest highs and lowest lows

Home is never too close

In my line of work

Here the rules don't apply

Another town passes by

New faces, new strangers

And you could use someone new

Someone better than me

But I still hope you will be waiting

I must roam

Follow the road I've chosen

Leave our home

The land is dark and frozen

Night by night

You're still in my mind

Everything I must do

Is your burden too

Still the road goes on and on

We just have to play along

Days are lonely, nights long

In my line of work

This is how the story goes

Highest highs and lowest lows

Home is never too close

In my line of work
