When the Lights Go Out Lyrics

I see her in her sundress right before I knew her name
she's slowly walkin' to me right before our lives would change
maybe I've gone crazy, maybe I am still in love
each night I change what happened
I change how it was, I change how it was
I change
when the lights go out
you can hear the sound
of your heart beat slow
and the memories glow
when the lights go out

that summer is my lifeline it's the only thing that's real
I'm frozen in this subway just a cog in the wheel
life is for the living and love is for the strong
I don't know how i got here but I know where he belongs
I know where he belongs
I know
when the lights go out
you can hear the sound
of your heart beat slow
and the memories glow
when the lights go out

in the middle of this circus you're the thing that gets me through
so I dive beneath the surface
I close my eyes and see you
do, do, do, do
when the lights go out
you can hear the sound
of your heart beat slow
and the memories glow

when the lights go out
you can hear the sound
of your heart beat slow
and the memories glow

when the lights go out
