Lately I've seen every sunrise   Driving down the Interstate   On my way to be the first one   Through the factory gate   It didn't used to be like this   The difference is night and day      I used to count the minutes   [Incomprehensible]   I couldn't wait to punch that card   And leave this place behind   But now when the whistle blows   Oh, the difference is night and day      'Cause it means I'll have to head on home   And spend another night alone   Counting memories that you left behind   And here in, in the kitchen drawer left   Shirt of mine you always wore   Something always takes me back in time      Weekends I could fish   Or catch a ball game with the guys   Anything to get me out   Of this house for awhile   But the minute I go home   Oh, the difference is night and day      As long as I don't have to see   All those things reminding me   I can tell myself I'm moving on   But as soon as I walk through that door   I know that I'll find something more   It shows me just how far I've really gone      Maybe I'll get lucky and get some sleep tonight   Either way I'm outta here as soon as it gets light   Outside these four walls   The difference is night and day   No, it didn't used to be like this   The difference is night and day
