The power lines went out
             
And I am all alone
                   
But I don’t really care at all
                 
Not answering my phone
                  
All the games you played
                 
The promises you made
                         
Couldn’t finish what you started
                        
Only darkness still remains


   
Lost sight
           
Couldn’t see
           
When it was you and me

                   
Blow the candles out
                    
Looks like a solo tonight
                    
I’m beginning to see the light
                   
Blow the candles out
                    
Looks like a solo tonight
                          
But I think I’ll be alright


                      
Been black and blue before
                   
There’s no need to explain
              
I am not the jaded kind
                  
Playback’s such a waste
             
You’re invisible
             
Invisible to me
                  
My wish is coming true
                       
Erase the memory of your face


   
Lost sight
           
Couldn’t see
           
When it was you and me


                   
Blow the candles out
                    
Looks like a solo tonight
                    
I’m beginning to see the light
                   
Blow the candles out
                    
Looks like a solo tonight
                   
But I think I’ll be alright



One day

You will wake up
                      
With nothing but “you’re sorrys”

And someday
                  
You will get back
                   
Everything you gave me


                   
Blow the candles out
                    
Looks like a solo tonight
                    
I’m beginning to see the light
                   
Blow the candles out
                    
Looks like a solo tonight
                   
But I think I’ll be alright
