I have had my share of fights, And some lonely, lonely nights Lord, that didn't feel too right Gonna reach a higher height The sun is sinking like a stone And it hurts to be alone And you're the finest thing I know So won't you wake me up when you get home? Turn the lights on baby, Before you lie down Turn the lights on, Turn the lights on baby, Before you lie down Turn the lights on, Turn the lights on baby, Let them shine Oh baby turn the lights on, Turn the lights on baby Let them shine Oh baby turn the lights on And if I'm sleeping like a log Just wake me up and I'll be your dog Turn the lights on baby Before you lie down Baby turn the lights on Turn the lights on baby Before you lie down Baby turn the lights on Turn the lights on baby Before you lie down Baby turn the lights on Turn the lights on baby Let them shine Oh baby turn the lights on Turn the lights on Turn the light on Turn the lights on Turn the lights on mama Let â??em shine Oh mama turn the lights on Yeah Turn the lights on Turn them on good baby I want to see you right now I want to see you real good Really good Why are you so good to me? Wake me up when you get home Wake me up when you get home Turn the lights on baby Before you lie down Baby turn the lights on Turn the lights on baby Before you lie down Baby turn the lights on Turn the lights on baby Before you lie down Baby turn the lights on Turn the lights on mama Let them shine Oh mama turn the lights on
