It had happened before
The darkening sky
We cleared the floor
Threw our windows wide
The telephone poles
Splintered in the road
We watched the wires spark in the water
Fall like dominoes

And the power went out
And the power went out

The wicks of our candles flickered and teased
At the woodwork
We wеre swaying
Imitating the flames
In thе quiet, in the silence, the symphony
We were dancing
One two three, one two three, one two three, one two three
One two three, one two three, one two three, one two three

And the power went out
And the power went out

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
And we did as good men should
Yeah we did as good men should
Yeah we did as good men should
Yeah we did the best we could

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

One two three
And the power went out
One two three
And the power went out
