Lyrics The Sisters of Mercy

The Sisters of Mercy

Lights

The lights shine clear through the sodium haze

The night draws near and daylight fades

Ignore the voices, discard the day

For the brand new darkness, for the bright new way

Hit

Well, there have been better plans

But none that I could ever understand

Emerald signal, the green on black

The lights say move, say never look back

And so I find another place where I've never been seen

Find another place where the red turns green

Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again

Where the emerald glistens through the rain

The lights shine clear through the sodium haze

The night draws near and the daylight fades

But there's a voice in the distance quiet and clear

Saying something that I never ever wanted to hear

Well, there have been better plans

But none that I could ever understand

I see the emerald ... see the green on black

See the light say move, say never look back

And so I find another place where I'll never been seen

Find another place where the red turns green

Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again

Where the emerald glistens through the rain, rain, rain

And I'm happy here in the rain

In the rain, in the rain, rain, rain

I'm happy here in the rain

Where the emerald glistens through the rain
