All In A Day's Work

She wakes up from a dream, checks the mirror for reality

She says "Come on girl, it's all in a day's work"

Gets herself dressed just in time, disappears on the 8:05

Oh the whistle blows and it's all in a day's work

'Til she calls it a day

Oh she smiles as he glances up from the swimsuit issue

Oh she sighs as he walks away into the downtown day

Day after day night after night

Loneliness creeps in her window

She locks the door, turns off the light

Rehearsing a kiss on her pillow, she cries

It's all in a day's work

Turning pages while the memories pass

Familiar faces from her senior class

How the years go by when it's all in a day's work

"Dearest Ruby, hope you reach your star

Don't ever change, stay as sweet as you are"

And when a teardrop falls she calls it a day's work

She calls it a day

Oh she waits by the telephone for the call he promised

Oh it's late

She puts her heart away for another day

Day after day night after night

Loneliness creeps in her window

She locks the door, turns off the light

Rehearsing a kiss on her pillow, she cries

All in a day's work
