Graham Parker - When the Lights Go Down lyrics

What you don't know can't hurt you What you can't see can't get in the way You turn out the light, things get clearer I know there'll be a night when you can't find the switch I'm half awake, I can't come to My hands start to shake As you're shaking me down And then you give yourself away with your kiss Up until now it was something that I missed I get the picture, but I just can't resist And you imagine someone else When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down What's on your mind isn't in your arms What's in your hands isn't really mine I'm not really here They're not my lips you kissed i'm just a slave or a catalyst Something's out of sync Don't tell me I'm just a link that gets pulled from the chain And every time I get you on your own I still feel as though I'm all alone It's just as well I'm not made out of stone As you imagine someone else When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down And then you give yourself away with your kiss Up until now I thought it was something that I missed I get the picture, but I just can't resist And you're seeing someone else When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down When the lights go down What you don't know can't hurt you...
