The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
The power lines went out And I am all alone I don't really care at all Not answering my phone All the games you played The promises you made Couldn't finish what you started Only darkness still remains Lost sight, couldn't see When it was you and me Blow the candles out Looks like a solo tonight I'm beginning to see the light Blow the candles out Looks like a solo tonight But I think I'll be alright Been black and blue before There's no need to explain I am not the jaded kind Playback's such a waste You're invisible Invisible to me My wish is coming true Erase the memory of your face Lost sight, couldn't see When it was you and me Blow the candles out Looks like a solo tonight I'm beginning to see the light Blow the candles out Looks like a solo tonight But I think I'll be alright One day you will wake up With nothing but, "You're sorry's" And someday you will get back Everything you gave me Blow the candles out Looks like a solo tonight I'm beginning to see the light Blow the candles out Looks like a solo tonight But I think I'll be alright
