When the power goes out
Not a sound in the house
No light in the window next door
I burn candles in bottles on the floor
Coffee is cold
There's no light in the refrigerator
Heat from the stove
Ten minutes til sunset, my breath just froze
Come on over
Let's keep this place warm
Bring your friends
Come in from the storm
Nobody's mourning daylight
The dark is the norm
Nobody's mourning daylight
When the lights go out
And the power's down
When you come round
There's a part of me that gets lit
There's a part of me that likes it
Shadows of faces
From the fire on the wall
They burn, they're gone
I love them all
Come on over
Let's keep this place warm
Bring your friends
Come in from the storm
Nobody's mourning daylight
The dark is the norm
Nobody's mourning daylight
When the lights go out
And the power's down
When you come out
There's a part of me that gets lit
There's a part of me that likes it
When the light goes out
And the power's down
When you come round
There's a part of me that gets lit
When the lights go out
And the power's down
When you come round
There's a part of me that gets lit
There's a part of me that likes it
