Lyrics
Where Were You?
(When the Lights Went Out)
Written By: Lisa A. Courtney
June, 2003
Where were you when the world stopped spinning?
Where were you when the lights went out?
Did you say a prayer?
Or did you even care?
Oh, oh, when the lights went out.
This world is so cold;
It?s so hard to know;
Whether you?re friend or foe.
Oh, Oh!
Where were you when the world stopped spinning?
Where were you when the lights went out?
Did you take some time?
Be a friend of mine.
Oh, Oh, when the lights went out.
This world is so cold;
It?s so hard to know;
If I?ll have you to love and to hold.
Oh, Oh!
Where were you when the world stopped spinning?
Where were you when the lights went out?
When the chips were down;
You were no where to be found.
Oh, oh, when the lights went out.
This world is so cold;
It?s so hard to know;
You were no where to be found;
When the lights went out.
Oh, yea, when the lights went out.
