David Gray Lyrics
The Light

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

You say I thought time was meant to take away the hurting 
As your lonely siluete closes the curtain 
Back on the road destination uncertain 
So lets get in this car and drive 
And this feeling I feel so strong 
So powerful it cant be wrong 
Now the whole frosted night is just a song 

A song for you 
A song for you 
A song for you 

Now the moon is splashed right over the street 
Like my tears on your thighs so pale 
It'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 

And it's rolling on by 
Here come the night 
You turn out the light 
And the dark sucks on the embers of the fire 
My heart smoulders in the night 
And these tumblin boulders of desire 
And we're rolling 
And we're rolling 
Rolling rolling rolling 
Rolling rolling rolling rolling rolling 
Ahh rolling
Rolling rolling rolling 
Rolling out the shadows in me 

You turn out the light
