Sweetbox - After the Lights lyrics

He met her backstage

She was s'pose to be just another girl

For the night

But there was something in her smile

That stopped his breath

She made everything make sense ohh

After the lights go down

And after the screams go dead

Her voice it still echoes in his head

After the lights go down

And after the lust and fame

His heart it still beats to the sound of her name

Sometimes he wakes up

Calling out for the one good thing

He let go

In a lonely hotel room he tries

To relive that night

And to see her smilling for him ohh

After the lights go down

And after the screams go dead

Her voice it still echoes in his head

After the lights go down

And after the lust and fame

His heart it still beats to the sound of her name ohh

The sound of her name

Oooh maybe one day maybe one day ohh oh oh oh hooooo

The lights go down oh oh

Years later he sees her

But when he sees her ring

His words escape

And he doesn't say he still tastes her kiss

And she's too scared to say

That her child's eys are his

After the lights go down

And after the screams go dead

Her voice it still echoes in his head

After the lights go down

And after the lust and fame

His heart it still beats to the sound of her name
