"Lights Out" lyrics

She gave you a dose of your own medicine
Shot out the lights in your heart
Don't you kinda feel like Thomas Edison
Sittin' alone in the dark

While she's out dancin' with her new boyfriend
You stare at the phone on the wall
Don't you kinda feel like Alexander Graham Bell
Yeah, wishin' there was someone to call
And nothin' seems to help at all

Lights out, your heart's in need
Lights out, you're gonna need sleep
Lights out, you just can't keep
From holdin' on to somethin' that's gone
Holdin' on to somethin' that's gone

It's 4AM and it's still rainin'
Waitin' for the lightnin' to strike
Don't you kinda feel like Benjamin Franklin
The string broke off your kite
And flew off into the night

Lights out, your heart's in need
Lights out, you're gonna need sleep
Lights out, you just can't keep
From holdin' on to somethin' that's gone
Holdin' on to somethin' that's gone

Don't you let love get you so down
They didn't make the wheel
Or the first go round
Time is the only cure
Of what you feel now

Lights out, your heart's in need
Lights out, you're gonna need sleep
Lights out, you just can't keep
From holdin' on to somethin' that's gone
Holdin' on to somethin' that's gone

Lights out
Lights out

You keep holdin' on
Holdin' on
You keep holdin' on
Holdin' on

Lights out
Lights out
Lights out
Lights out
