I turn the lights on in the hallway Walk down the stairs without a bit of grace The TVs on and the weather man says It's just another sunny day Open up the curtains in the bay window Look out at the neighbors we don't get to know All the cars are in the turning lane And everybody waves All I ever do is work All I ever do is pray But I do know that I have for you A love that never fades And it's okay if it's all I ever do You and I, we're gonna leave this little town Find a bigger city, go and settle down Finally have the chance to see our dreams Come springing into life You sold your guitar when the baby came We gave her Joni as her middle name And cluttered up the house with Fisher Price Never sleeping through the night All I ever do is work All I ever do is pray But I do know that I have for you A love that never fades And it's okay if it's all I ever do All I ever do You finally pull into the drive way We're both exhausted from a long day You wrap your arms around me with a kiss You look at me and say All I ever do is work All I ever do is pray But I do know that I have for you A love that never fades And it's okay if it's all I ever do All I ever do 'Cause I do know that I have for you A love that never fades And it's okay if it's all I ever do I turn the lights off in the hallway
