When The Lights Go Out

I sat at your bedside Mumbling to sorrow Holding onto your hand My back against the morrow There’s a beauty in this A privilege in parting I know The years turned to days And days turned to hours Penitent in black Pressing flesh amongst the flowers I regret a lot and said a lot of things I never thought I would say And I think about her I think about her everyday Well the night was ours We were swinging in the stars When the lights went out She was burning bright When we said goodnight Then the lights went out Oh honey when the lights go out Will I see you again? Plucking out their heartstrings Rattling their cages Butter fingered lovers Ripping out the pages To the rules of the game They’re never willing to play Oh I think about her And I think about her everyday Well the night was ours We were swinging in the stars When the lights went out She was burning bright As we said goodnight Then the lights went out Oh honey when the lights go out Will I see you again? We traced her steps across linoleum in kitten heels And pressed our faces in the crush of velveteen and satin trim She kept her faith on windowsills in plastic figurines Dedicated to a life spent letting go go gone Well the night was ours We were swinging in the stars When the lights went out She was burning bright When we said goodnight Then the lights went out Oh honey when the lights go out Will I see you again? Well the night was ours We were swinging in the stars When the lights went out She was burning bright Into the middle of the night When the lights went out Oh honey when the lights go out Will I see you again? Will I see you again? Will I see you again?
