I see the moon

Oh, when you're looking at the sun

Not a fool

Not a fool

No, you are not fooling anyone

...

Oh, but when you're gone

When you're gone

When you're gone

Oh baby, all the lights go out

Thinking oh that, baby, I was wrong

I was wrong

I was wrong

Come back to me, baby

We can work this out

...

Oh baby, come on, let me get to know ya

Just another chance, so that I can show

That I won't let you down, and run

No, I won't let you down, and run

'Cause, I could be the one

I see in blue

Oh, when you see everything in red

...

There's nothing that I wouldn't do for you

Do for you

Do for you

Oh, 'cause you got inside my head

...

Oh, but when you're gone

When you're gone

When you're gone

Oh, baby, all the lights go out

Thinking oh that, baby, I was wrong
