When the Lights Come On

Again I am addressing another unfortunate and all too common symptom of long-term relationships... love growing cold.

Lyrics

WHEN THE LIGHTS COME ON - Words and Music by WANITA

Your gentle caress that has touched me twenty years
Now makes my skin shiver and crawl
Your warm calloused hands seem much softer after all
Everything has changed I seen the writing on the wall
When the penny finally dropped, you never loved me at all.

‘Cause when the lights come on I found me all alone
The home we built together has drained all my love
‘Cause when the lights come on I found you making new plans
Well, I lost grip of my rock when it crumbled in my hands.

When the lights come on I found me all alone
As I walked into your world I can walk out on my own
The plans you’re making now don’t include me as I am
Well, I lost all grip of my rock when I married the wrong man.

…..I lost grip of my rock when the lights come on again….
