When The Lights Go Down

Faith Hill

When the lights go down
He'll be filling a pan with a broom in his hand
In some dive across town
He'll be wiping the bar and mopping the floor
Count his tips and locking the doors
Wrestling the devil that tells him to pour another round
When the lights go down

She'll be calling her friends from her Mercedes-Benz
But it's too late now
They were there for the fame, the flash and the thrill
The drop of the name, the parties, the pills
As another star falls from the Hollywood Hills
Without a sound

When the lights go down
And there's nothing left to be
When the lights go down
And the truth is all you see
When you feel that hole inside your soul
And wonder what you're made of
Well, we all find out
When the lights go down

When the lights go down
At the end of the day
When this game that I play
Has gone another round
As I lay there alone on this big empty bed
Nothing but thoughts of you in my head
I think of the things that I wish I had said
When you were still around

When the lights go down
Yeah, there's nothing left to be
When the lights go down
And the truth is all you see
And I wonder if all my life's about 
The sum of all my fears and all my doubts, oh, ow
Yeah, when the lights go down, oh, oh

When the lights go down
Oh, and there's nothing left to be
When the lights go down
Yeah, and the truth is all you see
When you feel that hole inside your soul
And wonder what you're made of
Well, we all find out…
When the lights go down
Ooh, when the lights go down, oh, oh
