Music When The Lights Go Out
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well is it cruel or kind
Not to speak my mind
And to lie to you
Rather than hurt you
Well I'll confess all of my sins
After several large gins
But still I hide from you
Hide what's inside from you
And alarm bells ring
When you say your heart still sings
When you're with me
Oh won't you please forgive me
I no longer hear the music
Oh no no no no no
And the memories of the pubs and the clubs
And the drugs and the tubs we shared together
Will stay with me forever
But all the highs and the lows and the tos and the fros
They left me dizzy
Won't you please forgive me
I no longer hear the music
I no longer hear the music when the lights go out
Love goes cold in the shades of doubt
The strange fate in my mind is all too clear
Music when the lights come on
The girl I thought I knew has gone
And with her my heart it disappears
Well I no longer hear the music
All the memories of the fights and the nights under blue lights
And all the kites we flew together
I thought they´d fly forever
But all the highs and the lows and the to´s and the fro´s
They left me dizzy
Won't you forgive me
I no longer hear the music
I no longer hear the music
I no longer hear the music when the lights go out
Love goes cold in the shades of doubt
The strange fate in my mind is all too clear
Music when the lights come on
The girl I thought I knew has gone
And with her my heart it disappears
I no longer hear the music
I no longer hear the music
