Edie Brickell - When the Lights Go Down lyrics
[Edie Brickell - When the Lights Go Down lyrics]
Benny lost his faith in a gambling spree
Had to leave this place get away from me
Ohhh ohh we'll meet again
Maybe introduced as friends
He'll come around in a while
But, it's so hard to see
When the lights go down
And it's hard to believe when
The lights go down
And you shake in your shoes
Sitting next to the blues
'cos you don't wanna loose what you've found
Benny wants to run but he stands his ground
Sick of those big boys pushing him around
Ohhh ohh here comes a crowd
They don't care what it's about
Somebody's son's going down
And it's so hard to see
When the lights go down
And it's hard to believe when
The lights go down
All the animals know when the fire is low
'cos the wind starts to blow on the ground
Went away on a sunday
Had a glass of wine on monday
All by yourself in your room
And it's hard to believe when
The lights go down and it's so hard to see
When the lights go down
And you shake in your shoes
Sitting next to the blues
'cos you don't wanna loose what you've found
And it's hard and it's hard to see
And it's hard, hard hard hard hard to see
When the lights go
When the lights go down down down
Down down down down down
Ohhh ohh no no no no no no, no no, no no
Noo noo m-m-m-m
Ohhhh
Had to leave this place get away from me
Ohhh ohh we'll meet again
Maybe introduced as friends
He'll come around in a while
But, it's so hard to see
When the lights go down
And it's hard to believe when
The lights go down
And you shake in your shoes
Sitting next to the blues
'cos you don't wanna loose what you've found
Benny wants to run but he stands his ground
Sick of those big boys pushing him around
Ohhh ohh here comes a crowd
They don't care what it's about
Somebody's son's going down
And it's so hard to see
When the lights go down
And it's hard to believe when
The lights go down
All the animals know when the fire is low
'cos the wind starts to blow on the ground
Went away on a sunday
Had a glass of wine on monday
All by yourself in your room
And it's hard to believe when
The lights go down and it's so hard to see
When the lights go down
And you shake in your shoes
Sitting next to the blues
'cos you don't wanna loose what you've found
And it's hard and it's hard to see
And it's hard, hard hard hard hard to see
When the lights go
When the lights go down down down
Down down down down down
Ohhh ohh no no no no no no, no no, no no
Noo noo m-m-m-m
Ohhhh
