After The Lights Go Out Lyrics by Channel 3

I’ve Got a Gun / After the Lights Go Out

0

So you had a little lesson on life today
Learned a little bit about the real way
Took a little trip to the darker side
Initiation to lust, greed and lies
I'm sorry to hear that
My broken friend
Shall we sit and wait up for the end?
Now she acts like she never cared
Gave back the doll you won at the fair
Gave back the letters and the pictures and things
Only kept the pearls and the unpaid ring
This ain't no book, man
It's real life
No perfect love, no starry nights
What can we do?
After the lights go out
We're still not through
After the lights go out
We all knew long time ago but we let your dreams
Live a few weeks more while you were home
And reading Krantz
She was out dancing every dance
This ain't no book, man
It's real life
No perfect love, no starry nights
What can we do?
After the lights go out
We're still not through
After the lights go out
What can we do?
After the lights go out
We're still not through
After the lights go out
Can't your reach exceed your grasp?
Quit those tears, get off your ass
Can't tell for sure if future looks bright
But you can't paralyze last night
This ain't no book, man
It's real life
No perfect love, no starry nights
What can we do?
After the lights go out
We're still not through
After the lights go out
What can we do?
After the lights go out
What can we do?
After the lights go out
