Closing time and I have overstayed my welcome One more drink and I'll be on the road again I'll ride all night before I have to face the morning And I'll be far away by then I always end up at the wrong side of the city I always stay somewhere I should have never gone It's a hard life and it sure as hell ain't pretty But it's the only life I know I'll be watching over you tonight I'll be watching and I'm sure we'll make it alright I'll be watching over you tonight With those green hills on my mind All those roads somehow seem to last a lifetime All those faces that I never will forget I live through lonely nights, I live through all the good times Now it's too late for regrets I'll be watching over you tonight I'll be watching and I'm sure we'll make it alright I'll be watching over you tonight With those green hills on my mind It's been a long time since I saw the shores I came from It's been a long time and it isn't over yet Without a home I need a shoulder I can lean on And you're the closest I will get I'll be watching over you tonight I'll be watching and I'm sure we'll make it alright I'll be watching over you tonight With those green hills on my mind
