John Mellencamp
Colored Lights
[Verse 1]
Look here, baby, I’m too embarrassed to talk to you
'Cause every eye that I see, every guy in this room
Is looking to talk only to you
How do you talk to an angel, I wish I knew

[Chorus]
And when the room goes dark
They're gonna turn on the colored lights
I’ll be sending out a signal
Little girl, can we dance tonight?
'Cause when the room goes dark
They're gonna turn on the colored lights

[Verse 2]
Oh baby, use your imagination
Won't you please?
And try to think of me makin’ my move
I could walk but I'm down on my knees

[Verse 3]
You know I've learned some lеssons
I bet you've learnеd some too
But when the blue mist fills the room
The colored lights are gonna shine on me and you
[Chorus]
And when the room goes dark
They're gonna turn on the colored lights
I’ll be sending out a signal
Crying, little girl, can we dance tonight?
When the room goes dark
They're gonna turn on the colored lights

[Chorus]
And when the room goes dark
They're gonna turn on the colored lights
I’ll be sending out a signal
Crying, little girl, can we dance tonight?
When the room goes dark
They're gonna turn on the colored lights

[Refrain]
I’ll be sending out a signal
Crying, little girl, can we dance tonight?
When the room goes dark
And when the room goes dark
And when the room goes dark
They're gonna turn on the colored lights
