"After The Ball" lyrics

After The Ball

I hear people laughing
On the corner by the square
The neon flickers on my wall
And I know you're out there

I'm in your bed and listening
For your footsteps down the hall
And I'll be waiting for you
After the ball

After the ball is over
After the ball
If you cannot stand
I've got a place for you to fall
The blinds are drawn
And I have turned
The clock face to the wall
I'll be waiting for you
After the ball

Loving you is sweet addiction
I need only you
Just as long as you come back
Go do what you want to do

Give the night your laughter
But I'll have you after all
I'll be waiting for you
After the ball

After the ball is over
After the ball
If you cannot stand
I've got a place for you to fall
The blinds are drawn
And I have turned
The clock face to the wall
I'll be waiting for you
After the ball

After the ball is over
After the ball
If you cannot stand
I've got a place for you to fall
The blinds are drawn
And I have turned
The clock face to the wall
I'll be waiting for you
After the ball
