Check your brake switch which I believe is a plunger switch at the top of the pedal arm.

They're notorious for sticking/failing

Are the lights on an 'AUTO' position??? i.e. Set to come on automatically at night? Or have you got 'Coming Home lights' lights that stay on for a few mins to get you to the door???? If so it could be either of these that are troublesome! I reckon only way to fix this is comp....!?
