Wrote this yesterday. It's about that friend that you've held a grudge with for such a long time that you forget what the conversation was about.
Hope you like! :)
Much Love,

When The Lights Burn Out
By Chris Cendana
Copyright 2007
When it's cold, i think of you and things feel like old times
And the laughs we had warm me inside
my mind is at ease
when thinking of you and me
Had a fight on our last go round
No idea my world would come right down
With nothing left to hold
It crazy to know, you'd still be there
And I want you to know, I'll be here till my hair falls out
and shining when the lights burn out
I know it's been while but I can't help smile
When you turn my world upside down
Yes, I know it's been years since we've talked on the phone this long
And didn't say who was wrong
Let's try to make this right
I need some of you in my life
Take some time to reflect on the day that our friendship was set aside
By the words that got mixed up in my mind
A simple flaw is enough to destroy us all
I admit I was wrong, but dragging this out too long
Was enough for me to write this song
And say I'm sorry for all the things I've done.
And I want you to know, I'll be here till my hair falls out
and shining when the lights burn out
I know it's been while but I can't help smile
When you turn my world upside down
Yes, I know it's been years since we've talked on the phone this long
And didn't say who was wrong
Let's try to make this right
I need some of you in my life
When the lights burn out. . .

I played one of my older playlists from back in the day and this song came up. I had to play it 3 times. The first time, I was a bit rusty with the lyrics but the second time, I got almost everything right. Funny how I can remember almost every word. I love this song Chris. I hope you’re doing good my man. Cheers to this beautiful song
It’s been 14 years and I’m still listening to song.
it's been 8 years, still here :)
+Hannah Dioquino I bet ;)
Hannah Dioquino 11 years lol
First heard this when I was 16. Now I'm almost 21 and I always go back to listening to this song. :)
2024 anyone?
I've been listening this song for a decade not so popular but my all time fave 😊
Agreed.. always come back to it
it's a nice tune, totally love it
Still can't believe this only has 500k views. I honestly think this deserves more than that.
I know 😐
Omg just came across this song again for the first time in over a decade…. Still so good!!
I remember watching this in the beginning of 08. Ever since, this has been my fave original acoustic song ever. It’s 2019 now and yet I still come back to this vid knowing every. single. word. to this song. Ultimate classic!
Omg how could I forget about this song?! It's really been since 07?!
It’s 2020... and I’m still listening.
I've just remember how much I liked to listen to Chris in, I think 2007, really good memories with really good music. A big hug from Chile, wherever you are
wow, this song has been here for 7 years... and it's still one of my favorites... says something ^^
So much talent, so little recognition.
Found this when I was quite young. Still makes its regular rotation in my playlists. Thanks for all the years of listening.
Your as good as anything on the radio Today. Someone needs to sign this Guy to a record deal. You are a breath of Fresh Originality. Outstanding would buy your CD in a Minute, I'm sure 1000's of other people would too!
Can you pls get on Spotify already, so I can listen to your songs all day long?!
+Karl Marquez hahaha i was just checking right now too.. :(
Yes please :( same thought
Watching in 2016 because this is still a fucking legendary song
Went to my old favorites saved and found this gem

John: Thank you so much. :) I tried to take it from the heart this time, instead of just the body, ya know? :) Thanks for listening and for the wonderful comments, my friend.
I used to jam so hard to this one in high school. Bring back old YT! 😍
In a time when so many so-called musicians seem talentless, Chris Cedaña is a breath of fresh air.
This guy is a really talented musician! I hope to hear more from him.
exactly, no matter what your always tredding on someone elses turf, theres only so many chords you can put together, differences really... strum pattern, lyrics, attitude, and what each musician puts into their music
this is my favourite song of all time. can listen to it over and over again without fail of enjoying it.
its been 6 yrs since i heard this song... Still such a chill song to listen to
my bestfriends in the whole wide world and i had this huge falling out a few months ago...
thank you for this song. kinda gives me hope that one day we'll see that deep down we still love each other, and no argument should come between us.

YEW ARE THE BEST......
