Lyrics:
“Lights Out” was the debut single from Lisa Marie’s debut album To Whom it May Concern.
The song peaked at #18 on Billboard’s Adult Contemporary chart and #34 on Billboard’s Mainstream Top 40 chart in 2003.
You were a million miles behind
And I was crying every time I'd leave you
Then I didn't want to see you
I still keep my watch two hours behind
Someone turned the lights out there in Memphis
That's where my family's buried and gone, oh yeah
Last time I was there I noticed a space left, oh
Next to them there in Memphis, yeah
In the damn back lawn
I didn't know that I was in the crowd
Oh, and the fresh cut grass stopped growing
Everything on my shelf has fallen
I still keep my watch two hours behind
Someone turned the lights out there in Memphis
Ooh, that's where my family, they're buried and gone, oh yeah
Last time I was there I noticed a space left, oh
Next to them there in Memphis, yeah
In the damn back lawn
Was that a bridge I was crossing?
Somewhere I stopped walking
I guess I fell off on my own
I heard all the roads, they lead to Memphis
Ooh, except for the one I'm stumbling down
And I'll, I'll be damned if I ever get this little
Son of a bitch from Memphis
Well, it's all there I guess
Yeah, and I haven't forgot
