Lights Out (Radio Edit) Lyrics by Rick Astley

0

On the empty streets of this nowhere town
The melting shadows fade
And the dark is creeping up on me again

In between these sheets where I laid you down
I tried to find some rest
So I reach out for the switch but why pretend

'Cause I can’t turn the lights out now
I see your face
No, I can’t turn the lights out now
My heart will break

'Cause everything I see
Will end up killing me
All over, all over again
So I can’t turn the lights out, turn the lights out

There’s a clock that stopped ticking by the bed
The second you were gone
And it feels just like my heart stopped beating too

'Cause it’s hard to keep those promises
I made when I was strong
Now I’m haunted by the ghost of you

And I can’t turn the lights out now
I see your face
No, I can’t turn the lights out now
My heart will break

'Cause everything I see
Will end up killing me
All over, all over again
So I can’t turn the lights out, turn the lights out

It’s so hard holding on
It’s so hard that you’re gone
It’s so hard holding on
Don’t you know, don’t you know

I can’t turn the lights out now
I see your face
No, I can’t turn the lights out now
My heart will break

'Cause everything I see
Will end up killing me
All over, all over again
So I can’t turn the lights out, turn the lights out
So I can’t turn the lights out, turn the lights out
