lyrics

Rebecca
I should have stayed with you
In the bathroom
At the bar
I never
Knew what I should do
In the backseat
Of your car
I tried to turn around
You said "stay where you are"

And don't turn the lights off, baby
The lights were never on
Don't turn the lights off, baby
The lights were never on

Rebecca
You know I wanted you
But I didn't
Understand
The camera
Flashing red and blue
Where you knocked it
From my hand
You said "Maybe I should
Take it like a man"

And don't turn the lights off, baby
The lights were never on
Don't turn the lights off, baby
The lights were never on

And we get lonely, lonely, lonely
We get low, low, low
But we go down, down, down, down
Swinging
Swinging

Rebecca
Where are you
Between the devil
And the sea
Sometimes
I catch a glimpse or two
In a worn out
Melody

And don't turn the lights off, baby
The lights were never on
Don't turn the lights off, baby
The lights were never on

We get lonely, lonely, lonely
We get low, low, low
But we go down, down, down, down
Swinging
We get lonely, lonely, lonely
We get low, low, low
But we go down, down, down, down
Swinging
Swinging
