Janis Ian Party Lights Lyrics

Party Lights Lyrics

Party lights

is there anybody here tonight?

Doesn't anybody have a light?



Party lights

Champagne and caviar

cocaine and Shalimar

Don't push too far

your party lights



People tell me that

I'm fading fast

but I can't last

the whole night through

Everybody now

it's closing time

I can't find my way to you



don't lose your head

Remember all those things

your mama said

but every vampire here appears well-fed

You look half-dead

They like you, kid



Party games

somebody pinned a needle in me

and I went insane

Walking on the edge of the line

in the driving rain

I felt no pain

It's a hell of a game



People tell me 

there's an end to this

but one last kiss

turns into two

Everybody can't leave now

i don't know how

to make it through



Heady wine

moving too slow for me

can't keep time

watching the silent movie

for a sign

in my prime

heady wine

You move too slow

I'm drowning- don't let go

I'm drowning- can't say no

keep it low

hell of a show



People tell me that

I'm fading fast

but I can't last

the whole night trough

Everybody now

it's closing time

I can't find 

my way to you
