There Is a Light That Never Goes Out (1 October, 1985, Eden Court Theatre, Inverness, Scotland) Songtext
von The Smiths

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

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


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 tonne truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine

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

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


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 tonne truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine

Oh, there is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out

There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out...
