lyrics

© 2013 Woodrow Thomas

When the lights go down, things don’t look the same.
The familiar shapes we know, take on different names.
But when that happens, Dear, you know I’ll be near,
And it won’t ever take me very long,
And I’ll love you when all the love is gone.

The time that’s passed is gone, and it was a fleeting thing.
The people that we knew and the songs we’d sing.
Life has had its way. The crowd has gone away.
The only thing remaining is this song.
And I’ll love you when all the love is gone.

Open your eyes. This is Love’s reprise.
It’s not time to cry or say goodbye.

Wind your clock again. Set the time once more.
We’ll start the day anew when our feet hit the floor.
You know that it’s been true, I’ve been there for you.
I’ve always had your back, when something’s wrong.
And I’ll love you when all the love is gone.

Open your eyes. This is Love’s reprise.
It’s not time to cry or say goodbye.

When the lights go down, things don’t look the same.
The familiar shapes we know, take on different names.
But when that happens, Dear, you know I’ll be near,
And it won’t ever take me very long,
And I’ll love you when all the love is gone.
