The Lights Were Still On (1988) | Ryan Mercer

The city was quiet. The crowd was gone. But the lights were still on. For everyone still holding on to a summer, a face, or a feeling they never quite forgot. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Ryan Mercer — The Lights Were Still On (1988) It was almost two When I took the long way home The rain had stopped But the streets still shined I passed your avenue Without meaning to And there it was Like every other time Most of the windows Were already dark The city was fading Into the night But yours was glowing Up on the third floor Like somebody forgot To turn out the light Funny what stays with you After all these years The lights were still on The lights were still on And for a moment Nothing had changed The lights were still on Up in that window And somehow I felt the same I don't know If you still live there Or if somebody else Calls it home But every memory Has an address And sometimes I still drive alone Funny what stays with you After all this time The lights were still on The lights were still on And for a moment Nothing had changed The lights were still on Up in that window And somehow I felt the same We were talking About forever Like it was waiting Down the road Now it's just a streetlight And a passing shadow But some things Never really go The lights were still on The lights were still on And for a moment Nothing had changed The lights were still on Up in that window And somehow I felt the same The lights were still on The lights were still on And for a moment I was twenty-two again ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ For those who have asked where to find the music beyond YouTube: 🎵 Spotify 🎵 YouTube Music 🎵 Apple Music https://linktr.ee/1987FM #RyanMercer #WESTON #1987FM
