John Mayer - Assassin lyrics
[John Mayer - Assassin lyrics]
I work in the dead of night
When the roads are quiet and no one is around
To track my moves, racing the yellow lights
To find the gate is open
She's waiting in the room
I just slip on through
You get in
You get done and then you get gone
You never leave a trace, or show your face
You get gone
Should've turned around and left before
The sun came up again
But the sun came up again
Enter the morning light
To find the day is burning
The curtains and the wine
In a little white room
No I'm not alone, her head is heavy on me
She's sleeping like a child what could I do?
You get in
You get done and then you get gone
You never leave a trace, or show your face
You get gone
Should've turned around and left before
The sun came up again
But the sun came up again
I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen
I'd steal your heart before you
Ever heard a thing
I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
Little did I know that girl
Was an assassin too
Suddenly I'm in over my head
And I can hardly breathe
Suddenly I'm floating over her bed
And I feel everything
Suddenly I know exactly what I did
But I can not move a thing
And suddenly I know exactly what I'd done
And what it's going to mean to me, mean to me
I'm gone
I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen
I'd steal your heart before you
Ever heard a thing
I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
Little did I know that girl
Was an assassin too
She's an assassin she's an assassin
She's an assassin
She's an assassin and she had a job to do
When the roads are quiet and no one is around
To track my moves, racing the yellow lights
To find the gate is open
She's waiting in the room
I just slip on through
You get in
You get done and then you get gone
You never leave a trace, or show your face
You get gone
Should've turned around and left before
The sun came up again
But the sun came up again
Enter the morning light
To find the day is burning
The curtains and the wine
In a little white room
No I'm not alone, her head is heavy on me
She's sleeping like a child what could I do?
You get in
You get done and then you get gone
You never leave a trace, or show your face
You get gone
Should've turned around and left before
The sun came up again
But the sun came up again
I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen
I'd steal your heart before you
Ever heard a thing
I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
Little did I know that girl
Was an assassin too
Suddenly I'm in over my head
And I can hardly breathe
Suddenly I'm floating over her bed
And I feel everything
Suddenly I know exactly what I did
But I can not move a thing
And suddenly I know exactly what I'd done
And what it's going to mean to me, mean to me
I'm gone
I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen
I'd steal your heart before you
Ever heard a thing
I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
Little did I know that girl
Was an assassin too
She's an assassin she's an assassin
She's an assassin
She's an assassin and she had a job to do
