[00:00.00]Verse 1:
[00:01.67]He met her backstage
[00:04.36]She was supposed to be just another girl for the night
[00:11.22]But there was something in her smile
[00:17.36]That stopped his breath
[00:22.17]She made everything make sense (oh...)
[00:27.92]After the lights go down
[00:31.09]And after the screams go dead
[00:33.63]Her voice still echoes in his head
[00:40.56]After the lights go down
[00:43.62]And after the lust and fame
[00:46.35]His heart still beats to the sound of her name
[00:52.67]Sometimes he wakes up
[00:55.57]Calling out for the one good thing he let go
[01:01.93]In a lonely hotel room he tries to relive that night
[01:13.06]And to see her smiling for him (oh...)
[01:19.02]After the lights go down
[01:22.17]And after the screams go dead
[01:24.61]Her voice still echoes in his head
[01:31.73]After the lights go down
[01:34.80]And after the lust and fame
[01:37.67]His heart still beats to the sound of her name
[01:45.65]Oh...
[01:48.60]The sound of her name...
[01:52.67]Oooh maybe one day maybe one day oh...
[01:58.07]Oh...the lights...go down...oh...
[02:12.18]Years later he sees her
[02:15.45]But when he sees her ring
[02:18.76]His words escape
[02:21.92]And he doesn''t say he still tastes her kiss
[02:29.15]And she''s to scared to say
[02:33.29]That her child''s eyes are his (oh...)
[02:39.48]After the lights go down
[02:42.16]And after the screams go dead
[02:44.69]Her voice still echoes in his head
[02:51.53]After the lights go down
[02:54.82]And after the lust and fame
[02:57.58]His heart still beats to the sound of her name
