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.
don't it hurt so bad
when you're standin in the sun
in the bottom of your heart
you don't love no one
you can be oh so mean
I just can't see, no in between
you know what the sun's all about
when the lights go out
what a way to live
back of your class
end of the line
always last
you can be oh so mean
I just can't see, no in between
you know what the sun's all about
when the lights go out
see the moon
see the stars
from your lonely seat
in your lonely cars
you can be oh so mean
I just can't see, no in between
you know what the sun's all about
when the lights go out. \
