Lyrics
0:09You turn out the light
0:12And the dark sucks on the embers of the fire
0:20That shoulders in the night
0:24And these tumbling boulders of desire
0:26Come rolling off the shadows of meoff the shadows of me
0:42Off the shadows of me
0:57You say I thought time was meant to take away the hurtin'
1:02As your lonely silhouette closes the curtain
1:06Back on the road destination uncertain
1:08So lets get in this car and drive
1:16And this feeling I feel so strong
1:20So powerful it can't be wrong
1:25Now the whole frosted night is just a song
1:32Song for you Song for you Song for you
2:07And the moon is splashed right over the street
2:11Like my tears on your thighs so pale
2:16Its just you and me in the sheets
2:21And I hope the whole wide world is just a jail
2:26When you're away from me
2:31When you're away from me When you're away from me
2:53And its rolling on by
2:59Here come the night
3:04Turn out the light
3:07And the dark sucks on the embers of the fire
3:10That smoulders in the night tumbling boulders of desire
3:28Rolling rolling Rolling rolling
3:40Rolling rolling
3:52Rolling rolling
3:56Rolling out the shadows of me
4:02Turn out the light
You turn out the light And the dark sucks on the embers of the fire That shoulders in the night And these tumbling boulders of desire Come rolling off the shadows of meoff the shadows of me Off the shadows of me You say I thought time was meant to take away the hurtin' As your lonely silhouette closes the curtain Back on the road destination uncertain So lets get in this car and drive And this feeling I feel so strong So powerful it can't be wrong Now the whole frosted night is just a song Song for you Song for you Song for you And the moon is splashed right over the street Like my tears on your thighs so pale Its just you and me in the sheets And I hope the whole wide world is just a jail When you're away from me When you're away from me When you're away from me And its rolling on by Here come the night Turn out the light And the dark sucks on the embers of the fire That smoulders in the night tumbling boulders of desire Rolling rolling Rolling rolling Rolling rolling Rolling rolling Rolling out the shadows of me Turn out the light
