I’ve been trying, there’s no denying
That girl you’ve got my heart falling so fast
My minds racing, you’ve got me wasting
My days were endless till I see you pass
And I’m like, (Ooo-ooo)
Baby did I catch your eye? (Ooo-ooo)
Can I see you tonight?
When the lights go out, You know it’s going down
The music playing is all we need
When we’re all alone, You don’t wanna take it slow
Forget it all and come home with me
Come home with me
Take my hand girl, we’ll cross this land till
We find a place that we can call our own
Trust in me and I’ll set you free
Babe I’m never ever leave you feeling cold
You got me like, (Ooo-ooo)
Tell me I’m the only one (Ooo-ooo)
And I’ll see you tonight
When the lights go out, You know it’s going down
The music playing is all we need
When we’re all alone, You don’t wanna take it slow
Forget it all and come home with me
Come home with me
Come home with me
Come home with me, with me
With me me, me, me, me, me, me
When the lights go out, You know it’s going down
The music playing is all we need
When we’re all alone, You don’t wanna take it slow
Forget it all and come home with me
Come home with me
When the lights go out, You know it’s going down
The music playing is all we need
When we’re all alone, You don’t wanna take it slow
Forget it all and come home with me
Come home with me
Capturing the Thrill of New Love
“Lights Go Out” by Charlie Puth encapsulates the exhilarating rush of new romance, where every moment feels electric. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of infatuation, with the narrator drawn irresistibly to someone who makes his heart race and his world stop. Puth masterfully balances vulnerability and confidence—he openly expresses his longing, hoping to catch the attention of his love interest, while also inviting her into a shared escape from reality.
A Night Driven by Emotion
The recurring motif of the “lights going out” symbolizes intimacy and the freedom that comes with being alone together. The song suggests that when the chaos of the world fades away, genuine connection takes center stage. The infectious chorus reinforces the desire to leave everything behind and surrender to the moment, driven by music, chemistry, and heartfelt urgency.
