The Light by David Gray Lyrics

You turn out the light
And the dark sucks on the embers of the fire
My heart smolders in the night
And these tumbling boulders of desire
Come a rolling out the shadows

Rolling out the shadows
Rolling out the shadows

You say ‘I thought time was meant
To take away the hurting’
As your lonely silhouette closes the curtain
We're back on the road, destination uncertain
So let's get in this car and drive

And this feeling I feel so strong
So powerful it can't be wrong
Now the whole frosted night is just a song

A song for you
A song for you
Song for you
The moon has splashed right over the street
Like my tears on your thigh so pale
There’s just you and me in the sheets
And the whole wide world is just a jail
When you’re away from me

You're away from me
You're away from me

Here come the night, turn out the light
And the dark sucks on the embers of the fire
My heart smolders in the night
And these tumbling boulders of desire
Rolling, rolling

Rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling
Rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling
Out the shadows in me
Turn out the light
