lyrics

Electric Light - Steve Merlin (c)1999/2013

I took the empty silence
And filled it with some words to hear
Something to talk about

I learned to fight the darkness
Got electric light to spend the night
Forget that I’m here alone

My fear for loneliness dries up
I found some friends to keep the water out
It’s only temporary

You give some kind of meaning
Such a comfortable feeling
But I must have been dreaming
Because I’m losing you again
On my own again

I used to freeze without you
Put the heating on to keep me warm
It’s fake but kind of friendly

Got a brand new miracle machine
That takes my mind away from here
I play my music through the night
Under electric light

You give some kind of meaning
Such a comfortable feeling
But I must have been dreaming
Cause I’m losing you again
Because I’m losing you again
Girl I must have been dreaming

I used to freeze without you
Put the heating on to keep me warm
It’s fake but kind of friendly
