Ingrid Michaelson - Lights Out Album Lyrics

Even in the harshest of winter I feel so warm
Even when the marks climb up the wall I still feel small

This is my home
This is my home
Where I go when I've got nowhere else to go
This is my home
This is my home
Where I go when I don't know where else to go

I know everything about this place, it wears your face
Even when my body blows away, my soul will stay

This is my home
This is my home
Where I go when I've got nowhere else to go
This is my home
This is my home
Where I go when I don't know where else to go

Do you feel safe?
Do you feel safe?
Do you feel safe?
Do you feel safe?

This is my home
This is my home
Where I go when I've got nowhere else to go
This is my home
This is my home
Where I go when I don't know where else to go

All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Lets not make it harder than it has to be
Ooooooh it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls

All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Lets not make it harder than it has to be
Ooooooh it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls

I'm a little let down, but I'm not dead
There's a little bit more that has to be said (Oh oooh)
You play me, now I play you too
Lets just call it over

All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Lets not make it harder than it has to be
Oooooh its all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls

All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Lets not make it harder than it has to be
Oooooh its all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls
Chase girls chase boys chase boys chase girls

Im a little bit home, but I'm not there yet
Its one to forgive but its hard to forget
Don't call me, I won't call you, too
Lets just call it over

All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Lets not make it harder than it has to be
Oooooh it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls

All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Lets not make it harder than it has to be
Oooooh it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls
Chase girls chase boys chase boys chase girls

I got two hands, one beating heart
And I'll be alright, I'm gonna be alright

Yeah I got two hands, one beating heart
And I'll be alright,
Gonna be alright

All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Lets not make it harder than it has to be
Oooooh it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls

All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Lets not make it harder than it has to be
Oooooh it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls

All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Lets not make it harder than it has to be
Oooooh it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls

All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Lets not make it harder than it has to be
Oooooh it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls

Oooooh it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls

Oh, let me wear your overcoat, my bones are super chill and all the ponies have gone home
Oh, walking through Manhattan with the ache from last night's smile still smarting up from my toes

Here we go, dancing on our own, inside this house that we have never known,
Here we go, going in alone into the dark and wonderful unknown, let us go, let us go

Oh, we make bread on Sundays and the little ones are climbing up the walls, up the walls
Oh, nothing lasts forever but the sound of love astounds me every time that it calls

Here we go, dancing on our own, inside this house that we have never known, never known,
Here we go, going in alone into the dark and wonderful unknown, let us go, let us go

In the best way, you'll be the death of me
In the best way, you'll be the death of me
In the best way, you'll be the death of me
In the best way

Oh, got your father's wristwatch on, the one your mother gave him when they thought the world won't end,
Oh, we will be there one day with a smile and nothing more to say goodbye to a friend

Here we go, dancing on our own, inside this house that we have never known, never known
Here we go, going in alone, into the dark and wonderful unknown, let us go let us go

Here we go, dancing on our won, inside this house that we have never known, never known
Here we go, going in alone, into the dark and wonderful unknown, let us go, let us go
In the best way you'll be the death of me [x7]

When I hear your voice over the radio from a world away
So sweet
Singing out to me I know
It's a lullaby
And I'm tangled in thoughts of you
And I'm all alone till you come back home
Why don't you come back home?

Oh, you got me
Oh, you got me good
Oh, you got me
Oh, you got me good, good, good

And when I see the curve of the earth in your willow eyes
I'm a rocketeer
Coming home after years at the speed of light
And suddenly you're there
Like a pearl in the palm of the universe
Your unlikely skies
Filling up my eyes
You come as some surprise

Oh, you got me
Oh, you got me good
Oh, you got me
Oh, you got me good, good, good
You got me good

Falling for the world again
Falling back to you
I was nailed shut like a shack on the edge of town
You were broken down
Till you came around

Oh, you got me (you got me)
Oh, you got me (you got me good)
Oh, you got me (you got me)
Oh, you got me (you got me good)
You got me good
You got me good
You got me good

Baby, you drive me so crazy
Baby, you drive me so crazy
Baby, you drive me so mad
You got me runnin' round town like a woman on a warpath

You put your spell on me
Got me rooted in the ground like an old oak tree
It's so good, can't you see?
That you've go the magic to set me free

Baby, you drive me so crazy
Baby, you drive me so crazy
Baby, you drive me so mad
You got me runnin' round town like a woman on a warpath

You got some magic touch
You got the hands to make 'em all buckle a rush
Blood runs fast, yeah you make it rush
I'm gonna live forever and it hurts so much

Baby, you drive me so crazy
Baby, you drive me so crazy
Baby, you drive me so mad
You got me runnin' round town like a woman on a warpath

There was a time when you were howlin' over me
But then the darkness fell and now you set the sea yeah

Baby, you drive me so crazy
Baby, you drive me so crazy
Baby, you drive me so mad
You got me runnin' round town like a woman on a warpath

Baby, you drive me so crazy
Baby, you drive me so crazy
Baby, you drive me so mad
You got me runnin' round town like a woman on a warpath

Baby you drive me so mad
You got me runnin' round town like a woman on a warpath

I think I'm the only one who really knows
What the emptiness inside of you will show us
We are only tiny babies living right here
Gone the way of someone else's bygone year

Can you feel me crying out to you are somewhere?
Can I see you?

When the lights do go out where do we all go?
When the fallout comes we know the show must go
Please just give to me your pair of handsome hands
Then I really won't care where my body lands

Can you feel me crying out to you are somewhere?
Can I see you?

Can you feel me crying out to you are somewhere?
Can I see you?

You lit the fire
Then drank the water
You slammed that door and left me standing all alone
We wrote the story
We turned the pages
You changed the end like everybody said you would

I should have seen it coming
It should have sent me running
That's what I get for loving you

If I had a time machine
And if life was a movie scene
I'd rewind and I'd tell me run
We were never meant to be
So if I had a time machine
I'd go back and I'd tell me run, run

I got your letters
I got your words
I stacked them high and lit them all and let them burn
Your broken sorrys don't mean a thing
You made that bed
Good luck falling back asleep

I should have seen it coming
It should have sent me running
That's what I get for loving you

If I had a time machine
And if life was a movie scene
I'd rewind and I'd tell me run
We were never meant to be
So if I had a time machine
I'd go back and I'd tell me run, run

Oh your love it got me higher
Then it drove me up the wall
But the higher up you go
The further you will fall

If I had a time machine
And if life was a movie scene
I'd rewind and I'd tell me run
We were never meant to be
So if I had a time machine
I'd go back and I'd tell me run

If I had a time machine
And if life was a movie scene
I'd rewind and I'd tell me run
We were never meant to be
So if I had a time machine
I'd go back and I'd tell me run, run

Living up while we're going down
Everything that we don't know now
Goodbyes and golden nights sing "oh oh oh"
You're the one with the pioneer heart
I'm the one in the brand new start
I feel it coming like oh oh oh

Headlights
Heartbreak
We'll go
Our own way
We got one life today

So when the lights go out, and the sun burns down
We're gonna climb this night singing "oh oh oh"
It's the last time now
In this one night town
To sing "oh oh oh"
We're singing "oh oh oh"

Light up our memory
Never knew what they meant to me
Hold on like you gotta let me go
You're the one with the cavalier smile
I'm the one with the open mile
Bright lights with no regrets
Sing "oh oh oh"

Headlights
Heartbreak
We'll go
Our own way
We got one life today

So when the lights go out, and the sun burns down
We're gonna climb this night singing "oh oh oh"
It's the last time now
In this one night town
To sing "oh oh oh"
We're singing "oh oh oh"

We've been running since the day we're born
Day we're born
We've been running since the day we're born

We keep running till the day we're gone
Day we're gone
We keep running till the day we're gone

So when the lights go out, and the sun burns down
We're gonna climb this night singing "oh oh oh"
It's the last time now
In this one night town
To sing "oh oh oh"

So when the lights go out, and the sun burns down
We're gonna climb this night singing "oh oh oh"
It's the last time now
In this one night town
To sing "oh oh oh"
We're singing "oh oh oh"

Nobody wants to be the only one that's left standing
Nobody wants to be the only one to understand
And now I'm seeing the way that you're leaving without me

Now go on and drift away
The tide can hold you out
Go quiet now
Go sound go safe
Open hands are hard to hold onto anyway
Anyway

Everybody wants the one to make them live forever
And nobody wants to be the only one to say they can't
And now I'm seeing the way that you're leaving without me

Now go on and drift away
The tide can hold you out
Go quiet now
Go sound go safe
Open hands are hard to hold onto anyway
Anyway

Now go on and drift away
The tide can hold you out
Go quiet now
Go sound go safe
Open hands are hard to hold onto anyway
Anyway
Anyway
Anyway

Now go on and drift away
The tide can hold you out
Go quiet now
Go sound go safe
Open hands are hard to hold onto anyway
Open hands are hard to hold onto anyway
Open hands are hard to hold onto anyway
Anyway
Anyway
Anyway

When you coming home?
It's the quiet in the night
That makes my mind make noises and guessing second times
Tell me that you're mine
Say it one more time

I'm ready to lose everything but you
I'm ready to lose everything but you
Everything
Everything

It's the heart in you
I know it in my bones
That made me change direction when I thought better off alone
Say it one more time
Tell me you are mine

I'm ready to lose everything but you
I'm ready to lose everything but you
Everything

Tell me that you're mine
Say it one more time
Tell me that you're mine
Say it one more time
Tell me that you're mine
Say it one more time
Say it one more time
Tell me that you're mine

I'm ready to lose everything but you
I'm ready to lose everything but you
Everything
Everything

Say it one more time
Say it one more time

Long, long time ago
You and I put on a show
We ran it in the ground
You said it's not enough
Don't want no broken love
You were no where to be found
Even after, something's gotta hold on

Did any of me stick at all?
Can you hear me singing through the walls?
There's a part of you that stayed with me
Someone else gets to know
Did any of me stick at all?
Did any of me ever stick at all?

I've got somebody new
He dances just like you
Makes me wonder how you are
Can't hide the memory
The memory of you and me
We were kissing in the dark
I'm always after, something that won't hold on

Did any of me stick at all?
Can you hear me singing through the walls?
There's a part of you that stayed with me
Someone else gets to know
Did any of me stick at all?
Did any of me ever stick at all?

We are the road untaken
The moon that's fading
If it means that you and me we got a break it
Well I'm done faking
But I need to know
Do you remember who I am?

Did any of me stick?
Did any of me stick?

Did any of me stick at all?
Can you hear me singing through the walls?
There's a part of you that stayed with me
Someone else gets to know
Did any of me stick at all?
Can you hear me singing through the walls?
There's a part of you that stayed with me
Someone else gets to know
Did any of me stick at all?
Did any of me stick at all?

When the world is breaking down around you
Taking everything that you know
What you didn't know
Is that we can go forever if we want to
We can live inside of a moment
The one that we own

You and me we got this
You and me we're beautiful, beautiful

We all, we all, we're gonna be alright
We got, we got, we always got the fight in us
We all, we all, we're gonna live tonight
Like there's no tomorrow 'cause we're the afterlife

Living like you're dying isn't living at all
Give me your cold hands put them on my heart
Raise a glass to everyone who thinks
They'll never make it through this life
To live a brand-new start

You and me we got this
You and me we're beautiful, beautiful

We all, we all, we're gonna be alright
We got, we got, we always got the fight in us
We all, we all, we're gonna live tonight
Like there's no tomorrow 'cause we're the afterlife
'Cause we're the afterlife
'Cause we're the afterlife

Every time I close my eyes I hear your favorite song
Telling me not to run, not to worry anymore
I can hold on tight to nothing better than the rest
So it's now or never more

We all, we all, we're gonna be alright
We got the fight in us
We all, we all, we're gonna live tonight
Like there's no tomorrow 'cause we're the afterlife

We all, we all, we're gonna be alright
We got, we got, we always got the fight in us
We all, we all, we're gonna live tonight
Like there's no tomorrow 'cause we're the afterlife
'Cause we're the afterlife
'Cause we're the afterlife

We all, we all, we're gonna be alright
We got, we got, we always got the fight in us
We all, we all, we're gonna live tonight
Like there's no tomorrow 'cause we're the afterlife

Over, I'm so over you
The way that you look in a three-piece suit
Over, I'm so over you
The way that you held me when nobody else would

Maybe if I tell myself enough
Maybe if I do
I'll get over you
Maybe if I tell myself enough
Maybe if I do
I'll get all over you, you
All over you, you

Over, I'm so over you
The way that you laugh at everything that I do
Over, I'm so over you
The way that you said that you'd always be true

And maybe if I tell myself enough
Maybe if I do
I'll get over you
Maybe if I tell myself enough
Maybe if I do
I'll get all over you, you, you
Over you, you, over you

I'm falling around you
I'm falling around you
I'm falling around you
I'm falling around you

Maybe if I tell myself enough
I'm falling around you
Maybe if I do
I'm falling around you
Maybe if I tell myself enough
Maybe if I tell myself enough
I'm falling around you
Maybe if I do
I'm falling around you

Maybe if I tell myself enough
Maybe if I tell myself enough
Maybe if I tell myself enough...
I'm falling around you

Maybe if I tell myself enough
Maybe if I do

Stars are lighting up the parking lot
It came to me the second I forgot
You gotta let me go

If I knew the way to less alone
Then it wouldn't sink me like a stone
Find the words to save
I wasn't born to fade

Maybe I can go away
Where everyone is gonna love me now

I was never right but never wrong
Everybody thought I'd finish strong
But I can get there soon
If you push me to the moon

Maybe I can go away
Where everyone is gonna love me now
Maybe I can go away
Where everyone is gonna love me now

Where everyone is gonna love me now
