Melissa McGhee - When The Lights Go Down Şarkı Sözleri

When the lights go down
He'll be filling a pan
With a broom in his hand
In some dive across town
He'll be wiping the bar
And mopping the floor
Counting his tips
And locking the doors
Wrestling the devil that tells him to pour
Another round
When the lights go down

She'll be calling her friends
From a Mercedes-Benz
But it's too late now
They were there for the fame, the flash and the thrill
The drop of the name, the parties, the pills
As another star falls from the Hollywood Hills
Without a sound

When the lights go down
And there's nothing left to be
When the lights go down
And the truth is all you see
When you feel that hole inside your soul
And wonder what you're made of
Well, we all find out
When the lights go down

When the lights go down
At the end of the day
With this game that I play
Has gone another round
As I lay there alone in this big empty bed
Nothing but thoughts of you in my head
I think of the things I wish I had said
When you were still around

When the lights go down
And there's nothing left to be
When the lights go down
And the truth is all you see
And I wonder if all my life's about
The sum of all my fears and all my doubts
When the lights go down

When the lights go down
And there's nothing left to be
When the lights go down
And the truth is all you see
When you feel that hole inside your soul
And wonder what you're made of
Well, we all find out
When the lights go down
