Light of my life is going out tonight
As the sun sinks in the west
Light of my life is going out tonight
With someone she just met
She kept it burning longer than I had a right to expect
The light of my life is going out tonight
Without a flicker of regret
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
Rolled in through the holes in the stories I told
Wishing, I'm wishing, we're taking control
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
Light of my life is going out tonight
So don't look too depressed
The light of my life is going out tonight
In a pink champagne Corvette
I sleep three feet above the street
In a band-aid pink Chevette
The light of my life is going out tonight
Without a flicker of regret
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
Rolled in through the holes in the stories I told
Wishing, I'm wishing, we're taking control
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
Patiently encroaching on the animal
Whether or forever we taking control
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
Rolled in through the holes in the stories I told
Wishes, I'm wishing, weren't taking control
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
Darkness and cold
