Turn The Lights Down
A-Ha · Lifelines
keep yourself warm, i'm coming home
i cannot help you, you yourself must see
decide now what you want to be
turn the lights down, the lights are too strong
i'm coming home
when your down and out, just hold on
realize that nothing lasts long
we must believe the things you want to be
everythings all right with me
turn the lights down, the lights are too strong
i'm coming home
i just want to sleep by your side
it makes me feel so alive
i just want to sleep for a while
turn around the night is still young
realize that things can go wrong
you must decide now where you want to be
your the one who said to me:
realize that nothing lasts long
i'm coming home
i just want to sleep by your side
it makes me feel so alive
so easy to love from a distance
hard to be near when you can
impossible now to get back to
where we began
i just wanna sleep by your side
it makes me feel so alive
i just wanna sleep by your side
i just wanna sleep through the night
