Lyrics of There Is a Light That Never Goes Out - Take 1 by The Smiths

verse

Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive
Driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
Because I haven't got one anymore

verse

Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people
And I want to see lights
Driving in your car
Oh, please don't drop me home
Because it's not my home, it's their home
And I'm welcome no more

chorus

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure and the privilege is mine

verse

Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
And in the darkened underpass
I though, "Oh God, my chance has come at last"
But then a strange fear gripped me
And I just couldn't ask

verse

Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people
And I want to see lights
Driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
Because I haven't got one, no, no, no
I haven't got one

chorus

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
All the pleasure, the privilege is mine

outro

There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light in your eyes that never goes out
There is a light in your eyes that never goes out
There is a light in your eyes that never goes out
There is a light, there is a light, there is a light
There is a light
Writer(s): Steven Patrick Morrissey, Johnny Marr
