When the Lights Go out (Tracie's Song) Songtext

von Mark Chesnutt

When the lights go out
And the crowd goes away,
We tear it down and load it up
And get on down the highway.
And I'll grab a beer and my old guitar
And go to the back and sing my favorite song
To myself, when the lights go out.

Tomorrow night's in Denver,
And out Tucson after that.
Maybe one more show but I don't know,
Yeah, we might be headin' back.
I'll give 'em what they came to see,
Bare my soul but they don't really know
Who I am, when the lights go out.

When the lights go out, I'm just a man
A man in love with a woman.
No matter where I go, I'll always turn around
And come back home cause girl,
You're always where I'm going.
And when you're there with me, layin' in my arms,
Up against my heart, that's who I really am,
When the lights go out.

When the lights go out, I'm just a man
A man in love with a woman.
No matter where I go, I'll always turn around
And come back home cause girl,
You're always where I'm going.
When you're there with me, layin' in my arms,
Up against my heart, that's who I really am,
When the lights go out.
I grab my old guitar and play my favorite song for you,
When the lights go out.
