Lights Out by Rick Astley

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 were I lay you down, I tried to find some rest so I reach out for the switch but why pretend.

Cuz I can't turn the lights out now
I'll see your face
No, I can't turn the lights out now
My heart will break
Cuz 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.

Cuz it's hard to keep those promises
I made when I was strong
And 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
Cuz 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 holdin' on
It's so hard that you're gone
It's so hard holdin' on
Don't you know?
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
Cuz everything I see will end up killing me
All over, all over again
I can't turn the lights out

So I can't turn the lights out
(Turn the lights out)

Great song. I love it.
