Kenny Mehler Lights Out
Lights Out – Written by Kenny Mehler
It’s not like I’m running around with another man’s wife
That would make it easier…so simple, cut and dry…
It would give me a reason why I want to run away and hide.
You know that nothing lasts forever
And you said that I never really mattered
But before I leave…
There’s one thing you have to do for me
And it’s the last one……..I’ll ever ask of you
Won’t you please leave me the Lights on, Lights on Darlin’
I may be leaving…but I’m never gone.
Won’t you please leave me the Lights on, Lights on Darlin’
I may be leaving…but I’m never gone.
I can’t remember the last time I saw you smile
And I don’t blame you for not walking down the isle
And there’s no reason we need to speak of this again
But always remember… I was your best friend
So much for happy ever after
Missing all the echoes of children’s laughter
But before I go…
There’s something you should know
I never regret……..One single day with you
Won’t you please leave me the Lights on, Lights on Darlin’
I may be leaving…but I’m never gone.
Won’t you please leave me the Lights on, Lights on Darlin’
I may be leaving…but I’m never gone. (x2)
Too late to read between the lines now
As you know I was never much for reading
But before I leave…
There’s one more thing that I need to see
That helps me………Get back up on my feet now come on’
Won’t you please leave me the Lights on, Lights on Darlin’
I may be leaving…but I’m never gone.
Won’t you please leave me the Lights on, Lights on Darlin’
I may be leaving…but I’m never gone. (x2)
