I got this wonderful hook and story idea one night when me and my Sister were talking about love and what kind of relationship really feels like Love! I wrote out a rough lyric and came up with the melody pretty quickly. My friend and cowriter Marlee polished up the lyric and the rest as they say is history. It's demoed by New Major Artist Lance Miller by Songwriter's Studio and I hope you will visit him at www.myspace.com/lancemiller

V1
Quickly slipped her night gown on
when she heard him call her name
she was eight months along
embarassed by her shape
she climbed into their bed
hoped he wouldn't turn his head
he pulled her in his arms
and this is what he said

Chorus
Don't Turn Out The Light
I wanna look at you awhile
you're just as beautiful tonight
as the day I walked you down the aisle
come on and look into my eyes
let me see my favorite smile
love grows sweeter with time
Darlin, Don't Turn Out The Light

V2
The years flew by so fast
the kids were in high school
she took her midnight bath
and felt so old at forty two
brushed some make up on her face
slipped on his favorite lace
then pulled the covers back
as he smiled and closed the drapes
he said,

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
Her health was failing at sixty eight
he held her hand said it'll be okay
and as he kissed her hurt away
he said,

Revised Chorus
Don't Turn Out The Light
she's the sunshine of my life
save her wings till you give me mine
Please Lord, Don't Turn Out The Light
