Who says love can not be found behind a bedroom door

Turn The Lights Down Low

by Brett Matthew West

Turn The Lights Down Low

The clock up there on the wall
Tells me the sun is going down
And, we've both heard the latest news
In this little one horse town

We shouldn't be here tonight
But, what we're feeling feels so right
And, I don't care how hard we fall
Turn the lights down low. I don't want to talk at all

Midnight and you're in my arms
No, I don't want to be alone
Say the words I want to hear
Give me reason to go on

When it's over, said, and done
I know you're still my only one
I don't wonder where you've been
Turn the lights down low. I can't wait to love you again

No reason to turn back now
And, it's only three a.m.
Give me all the love you can
Show me why I don't need him

Tomorrow I'll be wanting you
And, there's nothing I can do
Don't ever tell me go away
Turn the lights down low. I can't wait another day

On and on and on we go
Love's a flame burning bright
Where it stops no one knows
Help me make it through the night

Surrender to my gentle hand
Maybe then you'll understand
Your touch is what I'm living for
Turn the lights down low. Slowly close the bedroom door

Turn the lights down low
Close the bedroom door
I've been waiting here for you
Slowly walk across the floor

Come and tell me where you've been
Then let loving time begin
He knows he'll never be my man
And she knows about me too

But, turn the lights down low
Tonight I give myself to you
Yes, turn the lights down low
Tonight I give myself to you
