There Is A Light That Never Goes Out Lyrics

Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people who are young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home, because I haven't got one anymore
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
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 tonne truck kills the both of us
To die by your side, well, the pleasure and the privilege is mine
Take me out tonight
Oh take me anywhere, I don't care
And in a darkened underpass I thought Oh God, my chance has come at last
(but then a strange fear gripped me and I just couldn't ask)
Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don't care
Just driving in your car
I never never want to go home, because I haven't got one
I haven't got one...

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
