There Is A Light That Never Goes Out (2011 Remaster)
The Smiths · The Queen Is Dead
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive
Driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Anymore
Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people
And I want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh please, don't drop me home
Because it's not my home, it's their home
And I'm welcome no more
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten tonne truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine
Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought, 'Oh God, my chance has come at last!'
But then a strange fear gripped me
And I just couldn't ask
Take me out tonight
Oh take me anywhere
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
Driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Oh, I haven't got one
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten tonne truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine
Oh, there is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out...
About There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
"There Is A Light That Never Goes Out" is part of The Smiths's recorded catalog and should be introduced with a light editorial touch. The song title creates the first impression, but the lasting effect comes from the interaction of melody, production, and delivery. Some listings preserve version details or featured credits, so the description should stay cautious about background unless confirmed by dedicated music references. Even with that restraint, the song can be framed around its emotional or rhythmic purpose: whether it invites movement, reflection, release, or tension. "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out" gives listeners one more route into The Smiths's musical identity. The version wording should be preserved because mixes, edits, remasters, and live takes can change pacing, texture, or emphasis while keeping the same underlying song identity.
