night after day

i’m checkin all the headlines

truth slips away

we’re lying on the borderline

lookin over the crowded city

a pounding in my chest

thousand stories at my feet

let me stop and catch my breath

it’s all too much

when i see it

the labor of love

it’s all too much

but i believe in

the labor of love

day after night

can anybody slow down?

tryin to get it right

but there ain’t enough to go around

i quit my job i took my money

and cancelled all my plans

laid it all on a one way ticket

just to see your face again

it’s all too much

when i feel it

the labor of love

it’s all too much

but i believe in

the labor of love

the labor of love

working for everyone

labor of love

slave to the heart

it’s all too much

when i see it

the labor of love

all too much

but i believe in

the labor of love.
