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 my self 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 sign their symphony
Well I find myself on my knees
Begging please

On the floor
They’ve seen 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
