When the Lights Go Out Songtext
von Sarah Jarosz

Who are you when the lights go out? You got me wondering
How did you go from a face in the crowd to all I′m thinking about?
Sitting here on the night cloud, floating around
Just a thought 'til I said it out loud, who are you when the lights go out?

In a dream, we were Polaroid lovers
In the deep, where the edges don′t lie
You and me, fading into each other
And it makes me wonder

What if it was New Year's Eve? Black tie and evening gown
Would you tug at the hem of my sleeve, kiss me while we're countin′ down?
Who are you when the lights go out? You got me wondering
How′d you go from a face in the crowd to where we are now?


In a dream, we were Polaroid lovers
In the deep, where the edges don't lie
You and me, fading into each other
And it makes me wonder

In a dream, we were Polaroid lovers
In the deep, where the edges don′t lie
You and me, fading into each other
Fading into each other

In a dream, we were Magnavox lovers
You and me, somewhere all alone
On screen, in an ocean of color
And it makes me wonder, it makes me wonder

Who are you when the lights go out?
Who are you when the lights go out? (Who are you-)
Who are you when the lights go out? (Who are you-)
Oh, who are you when the lights go out, baby?
