LIGHTS OUT ON THE WORLD
Copyright © 2003 - Ed Bennett + MickTerry.com

It's LIGHTS OUT ON THE WORLD,
faded to a crystal night,-
with diamonds and- pearls painted on an empty sky.-
But you're not here: why is not too clear.

It's LIGHTS OUT ON THE WORLD,
showing what was unforeseen.-
And you left in a whirl, haunted by some broken dream.-
And I watch the sky, still not knowing why.

        Now this darkened evening goes.
        Other nights, I'd hold you close.
        Other nights, I'd swear I'd really known you.
        Now, this evening's darker still, leaving me alone & chilled,
        leaving me somewhere I shouldn't have shown you.

Now, it's LIGHTS OUT ON THE WORLD.
Too long til the morning comes-
with colors in a swirl: starkness of the honest sun.-
Yet, I must try to pass this by ...
tomorrow.
