Benny lost his faith in a gambling spree
Had to leave this place get away from me
Ohhh ohh we'll meet again
Maybe introduced as friends
He'll come around in a while

But it's so hard to see when the lights go down
And it's hard to believe when the lights go down
And you shake in your shoes
Sitting next to the blues
'cos you don't wanna loose what you've found

Benny wants to run but he stands his ground
Sick of those big boys pushing him around
Ohhh ohh here comes a crowd
They don't care what it's about
Somebody's son's going down

And it's so hard to see when the lights go down
And it's hard to believe when the lights go down
All the animals know when the fire is low
'cos the wind starts to blow
On the ground

Went away on a sunday
Had a glass of wine on monday
All by yourself in your room
And it's hard to believe when the lights go down
And it's so hard to see when the lights go down
And you shake in your shoes
Sitting next to the blues
'cos you don't wanna loose what you've found

And it's hard and it's hard to see
And it's hard, hard hard hard hard to see
When the lights go
When the lights go down down down down down down down down
Ohhhhh ohh no no no no no no, no no, no no, noo noo
Mmmm
Ohhhh
