NIGHT SHIFT LOVER

**Night Shift Lover**

 

 

(Intro)

 

Yeah, city hummin', moon watchin' us move slow

 

You and me, under streetlights, holdin' what the cold won't

 

 

(Hook)

 

Night shift lover, ride when the nights get cruel

 

Hold my hand through the sirens, and the lies that come like fuel

 

You my steady in the chaos, gospel in the cold

 

Night shift lover, keep me warm, keep me bold

 

 

(Verse 1)

 

We met where the streetlights flicker, where dreams sound like echoes

 

You smiled through the static, told me "we gon' eat, no borrow"

 

Cold nights taught us patience, mama taught me hustle hard

 

But you taught me how to breathe when the world try to scar

 

Runtimes and late dinners, elbows on the dashboard

 

We count blessings in the backseat, pray the engine don't stall

 

Your laugh cut through the paranoia, made my chest unclench

 

You my fortress when the nights get tense, my evident defense

 

 

(Pre-Hook)

 

Ain't no glitter, just the grit — but we shine anyway

 

You turn my worn-out prayers into something that can stay

 

 

(Hook)

 

Night shift lover, ride when the nights get cruel

 

Hold my hand through the sirens, and the lies that come like fuel

 

You my steady in the chaos, gospel in the cold

 

Night shift lover, keep me warm, keep me bold

 

 

(Verse 2)

 

You see me at my lowest, never blink, just fix the seams

 

Patch the holes with quiet words, build hope from broken dreams

 

I bring home stories with the scars, you bring the peace I lack

 

When the nights get heavy, you the anchor pullin' back

 

We move like two silhouettes against them flashing lights

 

They judge without knowing all the hours we fight to write

 

You plant faith in my pockets when the winters try to steal

 

We hustle for a future where love ain't got no deal

 

 

(Bridge)

 

We whisper plans over cheap coffee, map the route to better days

 

Turn the pain into the currency that pays the way

 

When the world write off our story, we sign our names in smoke

 

Night shift lover, we the flame that never broke

 

 

(Breakdown)

 

They see diamonds, we see dinners and a roof we can call ours

 

They see headlines, we see mornings built from nights and scars

 

I promise loyalty in every breath, every step I take

 

You promise me a mirror where my heart ain't fake

 

 

(Hook — Variation)

 

Night shift lover, ride when the nights get cruel

 

Standin' shoulder to shoulder while the city playin' fool

 

You my steady in the chaos, gospel in the cold

 

Night shift lover, keep me warm, keep me bold

 

 

(Outro)

 

So we keep movin', slow and steady, while the world turn loud

 

Two hearts on the night shift, swearin' vows without the crowd

 

Night shift lover, in the gray we find our gold

 

Hold me close till daylight — together, we unfold
