The Kinks - Bright Lights lyrics

rate me

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 blurr

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

She's up there in the spotlight

Now it's over and it's goodnight

Bright Lights (x 3)

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

Bright Lights on a cold night

If it feels good then it's alright

Bright Lights (x 2)
