Don't Turn The Lights On Lyrics
There must be another way
When she's gone to a better place
And loneliness will hurt you
If you can't get through the night
Then the moment starts to fade
And dawn is just an hour away
I feel she's watching over
And it gets me through the night
It makes me wonder what you'd say
It's taking me back to the month of May
When I watched you do it (all night)
I'm thinking back to what we'd shared
In many ways I'm already there
And I watched you do it
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Another walk to take
Another lonesome evening
Spent without you there
And only those who hurt you
Will say patience is a virtue
And it's been so long
And I can't think about it
No, I can't figure it out
'Cause just how real you're feeling
Every time that you're appealing
Leaves no room for doubt
It makes me wonder what you'd say
It's taking me back to the month of may
When i watched you do it (all night)
I'm thinking back to what we'd shared
In many ways I'm already there
And I watched you do it
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
When she's gone to a better place
And loneliness will hurt you
If you can't get through the night
Then the moment starts to fade
And dawn is just an hour away
I feel she's watching over
And it gets me through the night
It's taking me back to the month of May
When I watched you do it (all night)
I'm thinking back to what we'd shared
In many ways I'm already there
And I watched you do it
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Another lonesome evening
Spent without you there
And only those who hurt you
Will say patience is a virtue
And it's been so long
And I can't think about it
No, I can't figure it out
'Cause just how real you're feeling
Every time that you're appealing
Leaves no room for doubt
It's taking me back to the month of may
When i watched you do it (all night)
I'm thinking back to what we'd shared
In many ways I'm already there
And I watched you do it
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark
Don't turn the lights on
Cause tonight I want to see you in the dark

A broken relationship that the person can't get through and keeps reviving in his imaginations. Sad, but catchy tune.
HOW AM I FIRST!!!!!
This song is deffinetly about mystery and not knowing what's coming next.
although not only does the song title and the lyrics give that away all around good song!
It's about having lost someone, and the loneliness that brings. Either through death or other means, but I have a strong feeling it's the first. The chorus is just a clever way of saying he wants to be able to see that person when he closes his eyes.
so f'ing catchy it don't even matter.. don't turn the lights on, cause tonight I wanna see you in the dark!
