Way out here, working on the docks
everyone sees the long day through
well what would i do without the nights and the phone
and the chance just to talk to you
what wouldn't i do now...
just to talk to you
a thousand miles away
what i wouldn't give for only one night
little relief in sight
someday when times weren't so tight
Chorus
when the day goes down on the water town
when the sun sinks low all around
that's when i know i need you now
you're what i miss
every little kiss
every little one, oh, every little one
Everybody here's a number, not a name
but i guess that's all right with me
as i sit alone after a long day
in the absence of company
oh i let my mind wander...
a thousand miles away
what i wouldn't give for only one night
little relief in sight
someday when times weren't so tight
Chorus
