"Bright Lights"

D. Davies

Time's running out just as fast as it can
She's leaving me cold, I don't understand
Hearts beating hard on the edge of the floor
Gotta kill this pain 'cause I can't take no more.

Bright lights on a cold night
If it feels good then it's alright.

Thinking about when we first met
All these memories kill me, get them out of my head
The flashing lights of the cities roar
Make my mind a blur, who's knocking on the door.

Nothing's for keeps, can't get no sleep
My future is late, guess I'll find it next week.

Bright lights on a cold night
If it feels good then it's alright
She's caught up in the spotlight.

See her up there in a New York fashion show
See the freedom in her eyes, could've chose a better time for it all to go wrong.

Another night and my life is my own
But it scares me half to death
Out in the bars in the village with friends
You can buy me a drink but please don't mention her name.

Bright lights on a cold night
If it feels good then it's alright
She's up there in the spotlight
Now it's over and it's goodnight.

Bright lights, bright lights, bright lights.
