Put out the lights

By:

Oysterband

from album

The Oxford Girl And Other Stories

Print without graphics

There might be music on the he street
Forty floors below my feet
Static from a dying star
Comes as far, comes as far

Random voices on a show
Wisdom of the radio
They promise heaven down the line
Even mine, even mine

[Chorus]
PUT OUT THE LIGHTS
PUT OUT THE LIGHTS
PUT OUT THE LIGHTS
ON LONDON CITY
THE DARK IS WARM
LET ME TAKE YOU IN MY ARMS

PUT OUT THE LIGHTS
PUT OUT THE LIGHTS
PUT OUT THE LIGHTS
ON LONDON CITY
KEEP THE CREATURES
SAFE FROM HARM

Every place that I have been
Leaves its message on the skin
So many prophecies and signs
So little time, so little time

[Chorus x2]
