Simple Minds - See The Lights Lyrics






Summer's gone winter's in your eyes
I can feel the thunder storms inside
I wake every morning and the cold winds cover me
All I've got's a ghost of what could be
If you can see the lights shine in front of me
If you can see the lights shout out where you'll be

I'm in a broken dream I stare out into space
You know I called you up cos nothing takes your place
I've got a heart of stone and it's sinking deep inside
I want to tell you love I'm too proud to cry

If you can see the lights shine in front of me
If you can see the lights shout out where you'll be
Summer's gone and I can't tell you lies
Oh forgive me love I'm too proud to cry

If you can see the lights shine in front of me
If you can see the lights shout out where you'll be
Summer's gone and I can't tell you lies
Forgive me love I'm too proud to cry
Too proud to cry

Too proud to cry

Too proud to cry

    I heard this song back in the 80's but not again until now. I had a verse stuck in my head and looked it up. Still a great song today. Sad that this song didn't get the recognition it deserved, I like this better than their other bigger hits.

  30. L.... H....

    I am heading toward seventy years of age, and I don't or can't listen to a lot of current music. I was always aware of the reputation afforded to Simple Minds, but I have just got into them in a big way in recent months. Great vocals by Jim Kerr, guitar work by Burchill sublime and the band as tight as a drum. Doesn't get any better than this...

    L.... H....

    You are so right, Lester!

  31. M.... S....

    Love love love this

  38. D.... M....

    I always play this on the last day of summer and it conjures so many emotions at once. Thank you Simple Minds. 🙏

  39. D.... w....

    I'm beginning to think splitting up with my ex was a mistake.

  40. A.... S....

    Jim thanks for all your amazing I was in Australia when this came out

  41. H.... d....

    playing this epic song this morning as Autumn is upon us!

  42. R.... V....

    great song! amazingly underrated

  43. M.... ....

    This song hit me hard a few years ago. I was in a deep depression and contemplating ending it all. The line 'I'm too proud to cry' hit me the hardest and made so much sense to me as a father and a provider, hiding my true emotions from my family. Thankfully, now I can listen to this masterpiece from a much more positive point of view after speaking out and having the support of my loved ones. This song is forever a reminder of the ups and downs of my life and love that I never knew existed.

    M.... ....

    Thanks for sharing your story. Is strange how songs can impact people in different ways. This one of many songs from Simple Minds that I like.

    M.... ....

    Mully: Glad to hear you're doing so much better now. This is such a great, inspirational song and it moves me so much.

    M.... ....

    The ups: "If you can see the light, shine in front of me! If you can see the light, shout out where you'll be!" The downs: "I'm in a broken dream, I stare out into space...I got a heart of stone and it's sinking deep inside..."

    M.... ....

    Takes love of life and courage to open up like you have. All best.

    M.... ....

    Thankfully you came through a tough time-wishes

  44. N.... R....

  98. j.... A....

    Awesome now as then.

  99. T.... ....

    We have some great bands here in Australia but on the world scene no band comes close to or matches the musical talent and brilliance of Jim Kerr of Simple Minds, they are simply the best! Plus they are Irish, my family heritage, so they deserve extra credit. God bless!

    T.... ....

    Sorry to dissapoint but they are Scottish
