|
When the lights go out |
|
And the crowd goes away, |
|
We tear it down and load it up |
|
And get on down the highway. |
|
And I'll grab a beer and my old guitar |
|
And go to the back and sing my favorite song |
|
To myself, when the lights go out. |
|
Tomorrow night's in Denver, |
|
And out Tucson after that. |
|
Maybe one more show but I don't know, |
|
Yeah, we might be headin' back. |
|
I'll give 'em what they came to see, |
|
Bare my soul but they don't really know |
|
Who I am, when the lights go out. |
|
When the lights go out, I'm just a man |
|
A man in love with a woman. |
|
No matter where I go, I'll always turn around |
|
And come back home cause girl, |
|
You're always where I'm going. |
|
And when you're there with me, layin' in my arms, |
|
Up against my heart, that's who I really am, |
|
When the lights go out. |
|
When the lights go out, I'm just a man |
|
A man in love with a woman. |
|
No matter where I go, I'll always turn around |
|
And come back home cause girl, |
|
You're always where I'm going. |
|
When you're there with me, layin' in my arms, |
|
Up against my heart, that's who I really am, |
|
When the lights go out. |
|
I grab my old guitar and play my favorite song for you, |
|
When the lights go out. |
