1. Assassin - John Mayer I work in the dead of night When the world's quiet, no one is around Track my moves, racing the yellow lights To find the gate is open, she's waiting in the room I just step 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 Though 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've done And what it's gonna 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
