"Lights Out" lyrics
"Lights Out"
(originally by Lisa Marie Presley)
You were a million miles behind
And I was crying every time I'd leave you
Then I didn't want to see you
I still keep my watch two hours behind
Someone turned the lights out there in Memphis
That's where my family's buried and gone
Last time I was there I noticed a space left
Next to them there in Memphis
In the damn back lawn
I didn't know that I was in the crowd
And the fresh cut grass stopped growing
Everything on my shelf has fallen
I still keep my watch two hours behind
Someone turned the lights out there in Memphis
That's where my family's buried and gone
Last time I was there I noticed a space left
Next to them there in Memphis
In the damn back lawn
Was that a bridge I was crossing
Somewhere I stopped walking
I guess I fell off on my own
I heard all the roads they lead to Memphis
Except for the one I'm stumbling down
And I'll be damned if I ever get
This little son of a bitch from Memphis
Well, someday I guess
No, I haven't forgot
Someone turned the lights out...

You're not the first, you won't be the last

That road...

It's like a one way ticket on a lonely ride
To your memory

To forget her face when I hear those lines

Gone West - "Home Is Where The Heartbreak Is" We should've lit a book of matches, should've burned it down to dirt

Chestnuts roasting on the stove
Any old song by Sinatra or Bing

All I want is my family for Christmas
