Lyrics

[00:15.85] Benny lost faith in a gambling spree.
[00:22.98] Had to leave this place -- get away from me.
[00:29.66] We'll meet again.
[00:33.41] Maybe introduced as friends.
[00:34.03]
[00:37.15] He'll come around in awhile,
[00:45.03] but it's so hard to see when the lights go down.
[00:52.41] And it's hard to believe when the lights go down.
[00:59.72] And you shake in your shoes sitting next to the blues.
[01:03.41] want 'Cause to you lose don't what you've found.
[01:10.64]
[01:18.10] Then he wants to run but he stands his ground.
[01:25.17] Sick of those big boys pushing him around.
[01:28.11]
[01:30.53] Here comes a crowd.
[01:35.83] They don't care what it's about.
[01:39.33] Somebody's son's going down.
[01:47.21] And it's so hard to see when the lights go down.
[01:54.33] And it's hard to believe when the lights go down.
[02:01.58] All the animals know when the fire is low.
[02:05.33] 'Cause the wind starts to blow on the ground.
[02:12.40]
[02:24.85] Went away on Sunday.
[02:30.17] Had a glass of wine on Monday.
[02:33.67] All by yourself in your room.
[02:41.29] And it's hard to believe when the lights go down.
[02:48.35] And it's so hard to see when the lights go down.
[02:55.53] And you shake in your shoes sitting next to the blues.
[02:59.44] 'Cause you don't want to lose what you've found. it's hard to believe so it's hard to see when the lights go down
