Hard to Hold (Movie Soundtrack)

''When the Lights Go Down''


What you don't know
can't hurt you
What you can't see
can't get in the way

You turn out the lights
things get clearer
I know there'll be a night
when you can't find the switch

I'm half awake
I can't come to
My hands start to shake
as you're shaking me down

And then you give yourself away with your kiss
Up until now, it was something that I missed
I get the picture, but I just can't resist

As you imagine someone else


When the lights go down
When the lights go down
When the lights go down
When the lights go down


What's on your mind
isn't in your arms
What's in your hands
isn't really mine

I'm not really here
They're not my lips you kiss
I'm just a slave
or a catalyst, yeah


Something's out of sync
Don't tell me
I'm just a link
That gets put on the chain

And every time I get you on your own
I still feel as though I'm all alone

I'm just aware I'm not made out of stone

As you imagine something else


When the lights go down
When the lights go down
When the lights go down
When the lights go down

And then you give yourself away with your kiss
Up until now, it was something that I missed
I get the picture, but I just can't resist

And you'll be seeing someone else

When the lights go down
When the lights go down
When the lights go down
When the lights go down
When the lights go down
When the lights go down
When the lights go down

What you don't know
can't hurt you
What you don't know
can't hurt you
What you don't know
can't hurt you...
