I see her in her sundress right before I knew her name she's slowly walkin' to me right before our lives would change maybe I've gone crazy, maybe I am still in love each night I change what happened I change how it was, I change how it was I change when the lights go out you can hear the sound of your heart beat slow and the memories glow when the lights go out that summer is my lifeline it's the only thing that's real I'm frozen in this subway just a cog in the wheel life is for the living and love is for the strong I don't know how i got here but I know where he belongs I know where he belongs I know when the lights go out you can hear the sound of your heart beat slow and the memories glow when the lights go out in the middle of this circus you're the thing that gets me through so I dive beneath the surface I close my eyes and see you do, do, do, do when the lights go out you can hear the sound of your heart beat slow and the memories glow when the lights go out you can hear the sound of your heart beat slow and the memories glow when the lights go out
