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 A thousand miles away What I wouldn't give for only one night A little relief in sight Or someday when times weren't so tight 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 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 A little relief in sight Or someday when times weren't so tight 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
