Turn Out The Light

by Orleans

Lyrics
Now the time has come again
when all your work is done
And you need to rest awhile
although it seems you've just begun
Come lie here beside me
we can lay our burdens down, babe
Let the battle rage outside
cause we've found our peace for now

We're here together
such a short time it's true
(Won't you please) Turn out the light
Kiss me good night
And the let the darkness shine through

I can see as your eyes close
what a rough day you've had
But one night in my arms
will show that things aren't really so bad
The dark side's a blessing
when you have done all you can
I can't change the past now
but we can dream of a sweeter land

We're here together
such a short time it's true, babe
Turn out the light
Kiss me good night
And the let the darkness shine through

We don't need electric light
Because the moon is full and bright
We got our own electricity
I can feel it when you're close to me

We're here together
such a short time it's true
*Turn out the light
Kiss me good night
And the darkness shine through

Repeat*
