Matt Simons - When the Lights Go Down

When I wake in the night I’m reaching for you
There’s a place in my dreams where you’re still in the room
And you’re next to me somehow

There are times when I sleep on your side of the bed
Now since you’ve been away it’s as close as I get
Oh well, I should’ve learned by now

Morning light
Every now and then I start to feel alright
Days are going by, I know I’ll heal in time
Never thought I’d be scared of the dark

Now I only feel it when the lights go down
Feel it when the lights go down
Only get that feeling when the night rolls around
Feel it when the night rolls around

There are times I get drunk when I’m all by myself
Cause it helps me forget you’re with somebody else
Well, it don’t really work that well

And the other night I walked by your place
Hoping by chance that I might see your face
Oh no why did I think that would help

Morning light
Every now and then I start to feel alright
Days are going by, I know I’ll heal in time
Never thought I’d be scared of the dark

Now I only feel it when the lights go down
Feel it when the lights go down
Only get that feeling when the night rolls around
Feel it when the night rolls around

Oh I only feel it when the lights go down
Feel it when the lights go down
Only get that feeling when the night rolls around
Feel it when the night rolls around

I’ll pray for light
Four in the morning I don’t feel alright
Nights are growing long, I hope I heal in time
Never thought I’d be scared of the dark

Now I only feel it when the lights go down
I feel it when the lights go down
Only get that feeling when the night rolls around
Feel it when the night rolls around

Oh I only feel it when the lights go down
Feel it when the lights go down
Only get that feeling when the night rolls around
Feel it when the night rolls around [x2]

When I wake in the night I’m reaching for you
