The Libertines - Music When The Lights Go Out lyrics

Is it cruel or kind not to speak my mind

and to lie to you rather than hurt you?

Well I'll confess all of of my sins

after several large gins

but still I'll hide from you

hide what's inside from you

And alarm bells ring

when you say your heart still sings

when you're with me

Won't you please forgive me?

But I no longer hear the music

Oh no no no no no

And all the memories of the pubs

and the clubs and the drugs and the tubs

we shared together

Will stay with me forever

But all the highs and the lows

and the to's and the fro's

They left me dizzy

Oh won't you please forgive me

I no longer hear the music

Oh no no no no

Well I no longer hear the music when the lights go out

Love goes cold in the shades of doubt

The strange fate in my mind is all too clear

Music when the lights come on

The girl I thought I knew has gone

And with her my heart had disappeared

Well I no longer hear the music

Oh no no no no no

All the memories of the fights and the nights

and the blue lights, all the kites

We flew together

I thought they'd fly forever

But all the highs and the lows

and the to's and the fro's

They left me dizzy

Oh won't you please forgive me

But I no longer hear the music

Oh no no no no no

Music when the lights go out

Love goes cold in the shades of doubt

The strange fate in my mind it's all too clear

Music when the lights come on

The girl I thought I knew has gone

And With her my heart had disappeared

Well I no longer hear the music

Oh no no no no no

And no longer hear the music
