It's My Job to Love You ft. Night Falls Lyrics

I signed the contract

But never punch a clock

It's my job to love you

And I do love my job

No one checked my credentials

But I know I'm qualified

I don't have much choice

How much you occupy my mind

Kneel down for you so often

I've worn holes in all my jeans

Uniform of my commitment

Busted at the seams

When you slip and twist your ankle

Bear you home upon my back

When you're sad or bored or lonely

It's my job to make you laugh

I don't get paid to do it

And don't ever take time off

It's my job to love you

And I'm damn good at my job

Wise soul glowing through your eyes

And the spirit of a child

When I'm feeling overworked

You compensate me with a smile

And in the night I hold you close

Until you fall asleep

I wade with you into the shallows

Dive with you in the deep

Always let my vocation

Interfere with my career

the location of my loyalty

Should never be unclear

No one is in charge

Love is the boss

It's my job to love you

And I'm damn good at my job

Love is the work

Love is the wage

The cycle of returns on the

Investments that we make

Sometimes it's easy

Sometimes it's not

Sometimes it's too much

It's never not a lot

Love is the work

Love is the wage

Love is the key

To its own cage

No one checked my credentials

But I know I'm qualified

I don't have much choice

How much you occupy my mind

I don't get paid to do it

And don't ever take time off

It's my job to love you

And I do love my job

Love is the work

Love is the wage

The cycle of returns on the

Investments that we make

Sometimes it's easy

Sometimes it's not

Sometimes it's too much

It's never not a lot

Love is the work

Love is the wage

Love is the key

To its own cage
