I take the road until it ends
I dream of places that I've never been
I turn a to ghost into a friend
I dream of seeing you again

Oo-o-o-ooh
Your mind's racing
Oo-o-o-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 ghosts for all my life
Darling I hate to see you cry like this
No matter how dark 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 feel alone
We could walk each other home

Oo-o-o-ooh
Your mind's racing
Oo-o-o-ooh
Dragging you down
Down deep down down
Six feet under ground

There's a sorrow in your soul that I recognize
I've been followed by the same ghosts for all my life
Darling I hate to see you cry like this
No matter how dark it gets
I'll take the graveyard shift
Tell me what's heavy on you
Please don't apologize
I live to be the one you call 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
