[Verse 1]
You watch the phone like it was the TV
If you're all alone, well whose fault can that be?
Your keys, your bag, the car
They're where they always are
[Chorus]
And the light goes down and all the lights come on
And they call to me "oh come on, come on"
And you don't make, you don't make no difference to me, hey hey
[Verse 2]
You look at me, say "what you talking about?"
Well me, I'm going out, with or without
I know I don't get far and we're where we always are
[Chorus]
But the light goes down and all the lights come on
And they call to me "oh come on, come on"
And you don't make, you don't no difference to me, hey hey
You don't make no difference to me, hey
You don't make no difference to me, hey hey
[Verse 3]
So you fix a drink, cause its time to drown
And the clock speeds up and then it slows right down
The life that we have missed, I think it still exists
How can you resist?
[Chorus]
And the light goes down and all the streetlights shine
And they call to me, "you'll be dead a long time"
And it makes, it makes a difference to me
[Chorus]
And the light goes down and all the lights come on
And they call to me, "oh come on, come on"
You can make, you can make a difference to me
Come on, make a difference to me, hey hey
Come on, make a difference to me
[Verse 4]
So you fix a drink, cause its time to drown
And the clock speeds up and then it slows right down
The life that we have missed, I think it still exists
How can you resist?
[Chorus]
And the light goes down and all the streetlights shine
And they call to me, "you'll be dead a long time"
And it makes, it makes a difference to me, hey
[Chorus]
And the light goes down and all the lights come on
And they call to me, "oh come on, come on"
You can make, you can make a difference to me, hey hey
[Outro]
Come on, make a difference to me, hey hey
Come on, make a difference to me, hey hey
You watch the phone like it was the TV
If you're all alone, well whose fault can that be?
Your keys, your bag, the car
They're where they always are
[Chorus]
And the light goes down and all the lights come on
And they call to me "oh come on, come on"
And you don't make, you don't make no difference to me, hey hey
[Verse 2]
You look at me, say "what you talking about?"

But the light goes down and all the lights come on
And they call to me "oh come on, come on"
And you don't make, you don't no difference to me, hey hey
You don't make no difference to me, hey
You don't make no difference to me, hey hey
