When the Lights Go Down

We look around in this place we live
We both know we've got no way out
Every time I see your face, I know I've let you down

I used to work every hour God sends
Ah, baby, those were the days to remember
Now I just sit with the TV blasting our glory songs

I tried so hard to make you happy
But it all just seemed to fade away
I got nothing left to give you anymore

And when the lights go down
We'll take the radio out on the back porch
We'll dance real slow
'Til all this world just disappears

Remember back when we were young and free?
Back when we cradled our hopes and our dreams?
Every day we lived was for each other, babe

I see your face in the morning sun now
And wonder what this day will bring
One day I'll make it all just like it used to be

Because I still believe we can make it somehow
I still believe in the love we have
We're gonna have it all just like it used to be

And when the lights go down
We'll take the radio out on the back porch
We'll dance real slow
'Til all this world just disappears

Oh, and when the lights go down
We'll take the radio out on the back porch
We'll dance real slow
'Til all this world just disappears

And when the lights go down
We'll take the radio out on the back porch
We'll dance real slow
'Til all this world just disappears
