Light On

Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
It happened in the blink, blink, blink of an eye
I guess it was the wrong, wrong side of goodbye
You caught me on the blind, blind, the blind side
You didn't even stop once to think twice
Drove through the pouring rain
Weave in and out of pain
Wanted to turn around, turn around
Wish I'd have done it now
I still remember how we left it that night
Said it was better if we both just moved along
But if you're telling me it's not the last time
I'll be polite, I'll leave the light, light on
Leave a light on, I'll leave a light on
Leave a light on, a light on
Leave a light on, I'll leave a light on
Leave a light on
When did we lose the beat, beat, beat in our heart?
After falling in so deep, so hard
So if you're running round, round, round in the dark
I'll find a way to reignite the spark
Drove through the pouring rain
Weave in and out of pain
Wanted to turn around, turn around
Wish I'd have done it now
I still remember how we left it that night
Said it was better if we all just moved along
But if you're telling me it's not the last time
I'll be polite, I'll leave the light, light on
Leave a light on, I'll leave a light on
Leave a light on, a light on
Leave a light on, I'll leave a light on
Leave a light on
So if you ever feel the need
Jump in your car and just drive back to me
Wherever you are, I will always leave the light on
So if you ever feel the need
Jump in your car and just drive back to me
Wherever you are, I will always leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
I need you, baby
Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
Leave the light, leave the light on
I'll leave the light on
I still remember how we left it that night
Said it was better if we all just moved along
But if you're telling me it's not the last time
I'll be polite, I'll leave the light, light on
Leave a light on, I'll leave a light on
Leave a light on, a light on
Leave a light on, I'll leave a light on
Leave a light on
