ELTON JOHN - Turn The Lights Out When You Leave lyrics

rate me

Music by Elton John

Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

Your bags out on the bed

Your closet's all cleared out

You say you're goin' to Jacksonville

'Cause our love's all worn out

You're searching in my eyes

To try and find a tear

But the well of my forgiveness

Has dried up with the years

You might still look pretty

In that lacey little dress

But I think you've got your signals crossed

If you think that I'm a mess

I ain't gonna die, I ain't gonna cry

I won't wear my heart out on my sleeve

You can take the car, but you won't break my heart

Oh and darlin' turn the lights out when you leave

I ain't gonna shake, I ain't gonna break

I ain't gonna fall down on my knees

So if everything's been said I'm heading back to bed

Oh and darlin' turn the lights out when you leave

It's like a prime time movie

You play the part so well

You do believe you're Heaven sent

And livin' here is hell

I hear it's hot in Florida

And it's raining here tonight

But the sun's gonna shine tomorrow

And I'm gonna do alright

You might still look pretty

In that lacey little dress

But I think you've got your signals crossed

If you think that I'm a mess

I ain't gonna die, I ain't gonna cry

I won't wear my heart out on my sleeve

You can take the car, but you won't break my heart

Oh, and darlin' turn the lights out when you leave

I ain't gonna shake, I ain't gonna break

I ain't gonna fall down on my knees

So if everything's been said I'm heading back to bed

Oh and darlin' turn the lights out when you leave

You might still look pretty

In that lacey little dress

But I think you've got your signals crossed

If you think that I'm a mess

I ain't gonna die, I ain't gonna cry

I won't wear my heart out on my sleeve

You can take the car, but you won't break my heart

And darlin' turn the lights out when you leave

I ain't gonna shake, I ain't gonna break

I ain't gonna fall down on my knees

So if everything's been said I'm heading back to bed

Oh and darlin' turn the lights out when you leave

So if everything's been said I'm heading back to bed

Oh and darlin' turn the lights out when you leave
