All The Little Lights

Lyrics

One went out at a bus stop in Edinburgh
 One went out in an English pub
 One went out in a nightclub when I was fifteen
 Little lights in my heart
 ♪
 One went out when I lied to my mother
 Said the cigarettes she found were not mine
 One went out within me, now I smoke like a chimney
 Its getting dark in this heart of mine
 Its getting dark in this heart of mine
 We're born with millions of little lights shining in the dark
 And they show us the way
 One lights up
 Every time you feel love in your heart
 One dies when it moves away
 ♪
 One went out in the backstreets of Manchester
 One went out in an airport in Spain
 One went out, I've no doubt
 When I grew up and moved out
 Of the place where the boy used to play
 ♪
 One went out when uncle Ben got his tumour
 We used to fish, and I fish no more
 Though he will not return
 I know one still burns
 On a fishing boat off the New Jersey shore
 On a fishing boat off the New Jersey shore
 We're born with millions of little lights shining in the dark
 And they show us the way
 One lights up
 Every time we feel love in our hearts
 One dies when it moves away
 We're born with millions of little lights shining in our hearts
 And they die along the way
 'Til we're old and we're cold
 And we're lying in the dark
 'Cause they'll all burn out one day
 They'll all burn out one day, oh
 They'll all burn out one day
 They'll all burn out one day, yeah, oh
