John Mayer – Assassin Lyrics

  • by
Read Time:1 Minute, 34 Second

I work in the dead of night
When the roads are quiet
No one is around
To track my moves

Race in the end of lights
To find the gate is open
Shes waiting in the room
I just slip 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 have 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
No, Im not alone
Her head is heavy on me
Shes 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 have turned around
And left before the sun came up again

But the sun came up again

I was a killer, was the best theyd ever seen
Id steal your heart before you ever heard a thing
Im an assassin and I had a job to do
Little did I know that girl was an assassin too

Suddenly Im in over my head and I could hardly breathe
Suddenly Im floating over her bed and I feel
everything
Suddenly I know exactly what I did, but I cannot move a
thing
Suddenly I know exactly what Id done and what its
gonna mean to me, mean to me
Im gone

I was a killer, was the best theyd ever seen
Id steal your heart before you ever heard a thing
Im an assassin and I had a job to do
Little did I know that girl was an assassin too

Shes an assassin
Shes an assassin
Shes an assassin
Shes an assassin and she had a job to do
