When the light comes down,
I'll be watching you, be waiting for you
When the light shines down,
They'll stay there forever
Sierra, Sierra
Why did we meet when we were young?
Why do we always have fun?
Why do my dreams give me a way?
Why do they never wanna stay?
Well I'm sorry I hurt you
These tongues get tied sometimes
And I'm falling to pieces, with every word I rhyme
Cuz when the lights comes down,
I'll be watching you, be waiting for you
When the light shines down,
in the auditorium
These memories that fade,
They're getting further each day
When the light shines down,
They'll stay there forever
Sierra, Sierra
Why do I think of you at night?
When I'm alone, I feel a full light
Why am I living in the past?
God knows it wasn't meant to last
Like paintings,
our history
In time the details fade
I think of you fondly
Reminded every day
Cuz when the lights comes down,
I'll be watching you, be waiting for you
When the light shines down,
in the auditorium
These memories that fade,
They're getting further each day
When the light shines down,
They'll stay there forever
Sierra, Sierra
When the light comes down,
I'll be watching you,
Cuz when the lights comes down,
I'll be watching you, be waiting for you
When the light shines down,
in the auditorium
These memories that fade,
They're getting further each day
Cuz when the light shines down,
They'll stay there forever
Sierra, Sierra, Sierra, Sierra
