Leave a Light On
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So come the evening
I'm out on the dunes
Looking for a token, something to prove
All I remember, is more than a flame
In my fantasy fire
Whatever I've done to receive
Whatever I need to redeem
Whatever you say
Even if I wait a lifetime
I know, I swear
If you leave a light on, if you leave a light on for me
I'll come there
You can leave a light on for me
In comes the morning
I'm stirred in my track
Looking at the reasons for me to head back
So unexpected
The kindness you showed
That I will not forget it
Whatever I've done to receive
Whatever I need to redeem
Whatever you say
Even if I wait a lifetime
I know, I swear
If you leave a light on, if you leave a light on for me
I'll come there
You can leave a light on for me
You breathe the will into the we
And coax the cage back two-by-three (?)
You ease the lost cause out of me
With your sweet hand to bring me home
I'm not alone
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I know, I swear
If you leave a light on, if you leave a light on for me
I'll come there
You can leave a light on for me
I know, I swear
If you leave a light on, if you leave a light on for me
I'll come there
You can leave a light on for me
