(Can You Tell Me) When The Lights Went Out In Here
©Jerry Axson

So you say that you’re leaving here tonight,
I’m too numb to hurt - you’re too tired to fight,
we’ve put each other through so much hell -
I can’t help but think that it’s just as well,

Can you tell me when the lights went out in here?
(we were dancing - I was holding you so near...)
I stopped to breath and when I turned back around,
(you were gone - nowhere to be found...)
Now I don’t know if I can see myself clear -
to pick me up and get me out of here...
wo -wo -wo -wo -

I think it’s been coming for some time,
we put this pressure on and now it must unwind,
we had each other now that’s all been pushed aside,
you’ll take a lover and I’ll learn to live alone with my pride,
