The Smiths – There Is a Light That Never Goes Out

The Smiths – There Is a Light That Never Goes Out

 

 

Take me out tonight
Where there’s music and there’s people
Who are young and alive
Driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
Because I haven’t got one anymore

Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people
And I want to see lights
Driving in your car
Oh, please don’t drop me home
Because it’s not my home
It’s their home
And I’m welcome no more

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine

Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere
I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care
And in the darkened underpass, I thought
Oh, God, my chance has come at last
But then a strange fear gripped me
And I just couldn’t ask

Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere
I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven’t got one, no, no, no
Oh, I haven’t got one

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine

Oh, there is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
