I was driving down the highway when the lights went out
No one in the winter storm could see
Someone up ahead hit the exit sign
Snow was piling up... like in a dream
Falling down, falling down
Easy when the lights are dark in town
Falling down, falling down
Even with our lights we're falling down
I decided to turn off the road and wait a while
Hoping that a plow would clear the way
But twenty years of hoping's no guarantee
That tomorrow somehow starts another day
Falling down, falling down
Easy when the lights are dark in town
Falling down, falling down
Even with our lights we're falling down
The winter wind it howled and sang and froze my memory
And by the time I melted it was clear I couldn't see
Falling down, falling down
Easy when the lights are dark in town
Falling down, falling down
Even with our lights we're falling down
