Lyrics The Whitlams

The Whitlams

The Lights Are Back On

We made love for an album

Everything went quiet at once

So good to be lying

Happy and sane in your arms

I don't care what they do

'Cause being here with you

Is news to me

Tell everybody

The lights are back on

We made civic art

Under a streetlight

Something for the drivers tonight

Monday's my Sunday

I don't have a thing to do

But try and get up

While it's still light

I don't care what they do

'cause being here with you

is news to me.

Tell everybody

the lights are back on.

Yeah, it's news to me.

Tell everybody

the lights are back on.

Dearheart,

How I've been everywhere

Dearheart,

How I've been everywhere.

Everywhere.

Everywhere.

Everywhere.

Everywhere.

And I don't care what they do

'cause being here with you

It's news to me.

Tell everybody now

the lights are back on.

Yeah, it's news to me.

The lights are back on.

Yeah it's news, it's news,

tell everybody

the lights are back on.

The lights are back on.
