The lights shine clear through the sodium haze
The night draws near and the daylight fades
Ignore the voices, discard the day
For the brand new darkness, for the bright new way
There have been better plans
But none that I could ever understand
I see the emerald signal, see the green on black
See the lights they move, saying never look back
And so I find another place, where I'll never been seen
Find another place, where the red turns green
Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again
Where the emerald glistens through the rain
The lights shine clear through the sodium haze
The night draws near and the daylight fades
But there's a voice in the distant, quiet and clear
Saying something that I never ever wanted to hear
There have been better plans
But none that I could ever ever understand
I see the emerald, see the signal, see the green on black
I See the lights they move, saying never look back
And so I find another place, where I'll never been seen
Find another place, where the red turns green
Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again
Where the emerald glistens through the rain, rain, rain
I'm happy here in the rain
In the rain, In the rain, rain
this is it. that moment that defined what 1980's goth music was all about.this epic droning dirge of a song is a crystallized blackened pearl that shatters like a goya paint spill into your darkest mindset. andrew eldritch added twisted polititcs and razor sharp wit to his cannon when he penned the words for lights. the sisters took this tune, sandblasted it and fired it straight at a generation who thought pastel colours and "frankie says" t-shirts were the epitome of style
