Kill the Lights

Kill the lights and put your nightdress on

Have a last cigarette and leave one out for the morning

Kill the lights, oh, babe, I'm too damn tired

We can't fuck tonight, I work a double tomorrow

Kill the lights and, baby, shoot that gun

Kill the lights and, baby, right this wrong

We got married and I don't remember

I just kinda surrendered

Because I didn't want the summer to end

Her daddy had some money that he could lend us

So she took me to Paris

To try and make me a Renaissance man

We were young bloods searching for something

Spent youth on the dream of love

We were too close to see it coming

Now we're running from the things that we were dreaming of

Kill the lights and put your nightdress on

Have a last cigarette and leave one out for the morning

Kill the lights, oh, babe, I'm too damn tired

We can't fuck tonight, I work a double tomorrow

Kill the lights and, lady, kill the fire

Coming undone, I'm not even here when I'm not gone

Kill the lights and, baby, shoot that gun

Kill the lights and, baby, right this wrong

We woke up when the summer had ended

Yeah, the bed went cold

And everything was coming down

We spent so much of our time pretending

Now we're together alone

Ooh, so it goes

We were young bloods searching for something

Spent youth on the dream of love

We were too close to see it coming

Now we're running from the things that we were dreaming of

Kill the lights and put your nightdress on

Have a last cigarette and leave one out for the morning

Kill the lights, babe, I'm too damn tired

We can't fuck tonight, I work a double tomorrow

Kill the lights and, lady, kill the fire

I'm coming undone, I'm not even here when I'm not gone

Kill the lights and, baby, shoot that gun

Kill the lights and, baby, right this wrong

Baby, right this wrong

Baby, write this song

Baby, right this wrong, eh

Well, I ain't sure a lot, baby

I ain't nothing of the kind

No, I ain't sure a lot, baby

I ain't nothing of the kind

So, kill the lights on me

Kill the lights on me

Kill the lights on me

Well, kill the lights on me

On me, yeah

Ladies and gentlemen, Chris Koster

Kill the lights and put your nightdress on

Have a last cigarette and leave one out for the morning

Kill the lights, oh, babe, I'm too damn tired

We can't fuck tonight, I work a double tomorrow
