Cold Holiday: Out Go The Lights

Share This Post

Out go the lights
Late in the night
What will we hear
Who will appear

Night is fine, it’s fine
It’s just a time

During the day
Nothing will change
No one will take
The light away

Daytime’s fine, it’s fine
It’s just a time

If no one’s there
Why do I care?

Out go the lights
Late in the night
