There Is A Light

That Never Goes Out


The Smiths

[Verse 1]

Take me out tonight

Where there's music and there's people

And they're young and alive

Driving in your car

I never never want to go home

Because I haven't got one anymore


[Verse 2]

Take me out tonight

Because I want to see people

And I want to see life

Driving in your car

Oh please don't drop me home

Because it's not my home

It's their home

And I'm welcome no more


[Chorus]

And if a double decker bus

Crashes into us

To die by your side

Is such a heavenly way to die

And if a ten ton truck

Kills the both of us

To die by your side

Well the pleasure

The privilege is mine


[Verse 3]

Take me out tonight

Take me anywhere

I don't care

I don't care

I don't care

And in the darkened underpass

I thought oh God

My chance has come at last

But then a strange fear gripped me

And I just couldn't ask


[Verse 4]

Take me out tonight

Oh take me anywhere

I don't care

I don't care

I don't care

Driving in your car

I never never want to go home

Because I haven't got one

Oh I haven't got one


[Chorus]

And if a double decker bus

Crashes into us

To die by your side

Is such a heavenly way to die

And if a ten ton truck

Kills the both of us

To die by your side

Well the pleasure

The privilege is mine


[Outro]

There is a light and it never goes out
