Under Lights

Things grow to such unusual heights
It's a strange effect
To watch a life under lights

I walk along the city street
I choose the quiet times
I walk with you
And feel you here beside me

Under lights you may grow pale
But there is nourishment
There are people whose attention
Is on you and you alone

I think they may need you
That's why they come on nights
To watch you working under lights
Under lights under lights
To see you working under lights

We show some incredible sights
It's a strange career
To live this life under lights

I stay inside the house by day
I keep the curtains closed
I talk to you
And feel you here beside me

Under lights you may grow pale
But there is nourishment
There are people whose attention
Is on you and you alone

I think they need us
That's why they come on nights
To watch us working under lights
Under lights under lights
See us working under lights
Under lights

Under lights you may grow pale
But there is nourishment
There are people whose attention
Is on you and you alone
