Song Description

The lights went out so I wrote a song

Lyrics

When The Lights Go Out

The sun goes down and the house is dark
I heard the pop, and I saw the spark
Like a blown transformer when you walked out
But I'm the man with the plan when the lights go out

This is what I do when the lights go out
I play guitar and sing when the lights go out
Light a candle, grab the flashlight
Everything's gonna be all right
This is what I do when the lights go out

We would make wild love when the lights went out
The world could end and we'd still be making out
Now, I play my guitar here in the dark
Singing the blues from my broken heart

Because, this is what I do when the lights go out
I play guitar and sing when the lights go out
When you hit the switch, I was down and out
Now I got a reason to rock out
This is what I do when the lights go out

This is what I do when the lights go out
I play guitar and scream when the lights go out
We used to make love by candlelight
Hey baby, we could rock all night
This is what we'd do when the lights went out

Now I strum the strings and sing when the lights go out
I wrote this song for you when the lights went out
Little by little, I can see the light
Rocking out by candlelight
This is what I do when the lights go out
