Meet Me At Four
Another shift is done,
the hospital is quiet now
I pull my coat in close beneath the fading moon
Her name tag says Marie,
she wipes the counter down (ahhhh)
He's sitting on the end,
his coffee steaming slow
A road-worn trucker staring out into the gray
He nods a quiet greeting,
the only friend I know (mmm-hmm)
Meet me at four,
when the world is fast asleep
Meet me at four,
with the promises we keep
Just two tired souls finding shelter from the storm At a counter
in the corner where the coffee's warm
We talk about the highway,
we talk about the ward
The heavy loads we carry through the dark of night
We laugh about the bad coffee we both can afford
(haha,
yeah)
Meet me at four,
when the world is fast asleep
Meet me at four,
with the promises we keep
Just two tired souls finding shelter from the storm
At a counter in the corner where the coffee's warm
We made it through another night
(yeah, we did) Meet me at four
