you need to be more specific. what light? is it just the headlights or do all the lights go out?

so does shutting the lights off and then back on seem to fix the problem? i think there is a circuit breaker in the headlight switch and for some reason your lights keep tripping it. do you have aftermarket headlight bulbs?

Have you checked the light sockets and wiring for corrosion or breaks? Wire wiggling seems to work well for checking for broken/corroded wires which are common problems in older vehicles.
