Lights Go Down

M1, northbound
Never dreamed when I got older
That the life I'd go on to lead
Ran side by side with the hard shoulder
And I'm not far from home now
And as soon as I get there
I'll wash this city smoke out my country hair so

Don't you think I've noticed
It's not the first time I've been told this
I hate when you're alone
But I'll soon be back at home where
Everybody wants to know me now
To know me like, know me like you
But in the morning when the lights go down
You'll always show me just how well you do

I take one, I fall down
It's a nuisance of sedation
And I float to the next town
On prescription medication then I'll
Count one, I fall down
It's in my imagination
I don't wake up 'til the slip road
To another service station

So don't you think I've noticed
It's not the first time I've been told this
I hate that you're alone
But I'll soon be back at home where
Everybody wants to know me now
To know me like, know me like you
But in the morning when the lights go down
You'll always show me just how well you do

So don't you think I've noticed
It's not the first time I've been told this
I hate that you're alone
But I'll soon be back at home where
Everybody wants to know me now
To know me like, know me like you
But in the morning when the lights go down
You'll always show me just how well you do

And everybody wants to know me now
To know me like, know me like you
But in the morning when the lights go down
You'll always show me just how well you do, ooh
