Lyrics

Coming home is always joy to me Ain't a place that I would rather be I need to see the heaven in your eyes 'Cause you're the love that's always hard to find Every dream that's ever crossed my mind Only you can make the day end right So turn out the lamplight (turn out the lamplight) Sit by my side, love me tonight Turn out the lamplight (turn out the lamplight) Let's dream for a while, just you and I And we'll let the world go spinning by (Turn out the lamplight) On a day when problems get me down It's nice to think about the love we found All I need is you and I'll get by And though the years may make me old and grey Darling, you still take my breath away 'Cause time can't change the warmth inside your smile So turn out the lamplight (turn out the lamplight) Sit by my side, love me tonight Turn out the lamplight (turn out the lamplight) Let's dream for a while, just you and I And we'll let the world go spinning by (Turn out the lamplight) (Turn out the lamplight) sit by my side Sit by my side and love me, love me tonight (Turn out the lamplight) Turn out the lamplights and let's dream (Turn out the lamplight) let's dream for a while Just you and I (Turn out the lamplight) ooh-oh, sit by my side
