On my way home I met an

Old friend of mine

We walked and we talked an' shared

A bottle of wine 

We started to dance,

my intentions were good

How could I know I'd be misunderstood



I promised to call before the weekend 

Was thru

We'd all get together so she could

meet you

I was just being friendly, I met her

By chance

You gotta believe me - it's not a romance



Don't turn the light out, I'm starting to see

Don't turn the light out, you're getting to me

Don't turn the light out, we're burning so bright

Don't turn the light out.....don't turn out the light 



You gotta see it from my point

Of view

The same situation could

Happen to you

I said it was over before she left

Town 

I can't believe that you're putting me down





Aaahh, It would be easy if you'd lighten up

Do it to please me, enough is enough

All that we've been thru, how can you doubt

The ups an' the downs are what loving's about 



Don't turn the light out, I'm starting to see

Don't turn the light out, you're getting to me

Don't turn the light out, we're burning so bright

Don't turn the light out.....don't turn out the light 



Mmm, don't turn the light out

ooohhh, don't turn the light out



Don't turn the light out, I'm starting to see

Don't turn the light out, you're getting to me

Don't turn the light out, we're burning so bright

Don't turn the light out.....don't turn out the light
