I work in the dead of night
When the roads are quiet
No one is around
To track my moves
Racing the yellow lights
To find the gate is open
Shes waiting in the room
i just step on through.
O whoa whoa whoa whoa... O whoa whoa whoa whoa
You get in, You get done, and then you get gone
You never leave a trace or show your face you get gone
You should have 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 steel 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...
