When the Lights Go Down - Faith Hill

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 wiping the bar and moppin' the floor
countin' his tips and lockin' the doors-
Wrestlin' the devil that tells him to pour
another round.
When the lights go down.

She'll be callin' 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 nothin' 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
and there's nothin' left to be.
When the lights go down
and the truth is all you see.
And I wonder if
all my life's about
some of 'em are missin
all my doubts- yeah-
When the lights go down.
Oh-o-woah.

When the lights go down- oh
and there's nothin' left to be.
When the lights go down- yeah-
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.
Ohhh- when the lights go down.
Oh-oh.
