Lyrics When the Lights Go Down - Faith Hill

When the Lights Go Down

When the lights go down
He’ll be fillin' a pan with a broom in his hand
In some dive across town
He’ll be wipin' the bar, and moppin' the floor
Countin' his tips and lockin' the doors
Restlin' with the devil that tells him to pour another round
When the lights go down
She’ll be callin' her friends from the Mercedes Benz
But it’s too late now
They were there for the fame, the flash and thrill
The drop of the name, the parties, and the pills
So 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
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
With this game that I play
Has gone another round
As I lay there alone in 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
And 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
Yeah, when the lights go down
When the lights go down
When 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
Wonder what your made of Well we all find out
When the lights go down
Oooo, when the lights go down
