Belinda Carlisle - Twelve Inch Eighties: When the Going Gets Tough

Leave a Light On

Take my hand, tell me what you are feeling
Understand this is just the beginning
Although I have to go, it makes me feel like cryin'
I don't know when I'll see you again

Darling, leave a light on for me
I'll be there before you close the door
To give you all the love that you need
Darling, leave a light on for me
'Cause when the world takes me away
You are still the air that I breathe

I can't explain, I don't know just how far I have to go
But darling I'll keep the key, just leave a light on for me

Yes I know, what I'm asking is crazy
You could go and just get tired of waiting
But if I lose your love, torn out by my desire
That would be the one regret of my life

Darling, leave a light on for me
I'll be there before you close the door
To give you all the love that you need
Darling, leave a light on for me
'Cause when the world takes me away
You are still the air that I breathe

I can't explain, I don't know just how far I have to go
But darling I'll keep the key, just leave a light on for me

Just like a spark lights up the dark
Baby, that's your heart
Baby, that's your heart
Baby, that's your heart

Darling, leave a light on for me
I'll be there before you close the door
To give you all the love that you need
Darling, leave a light on for me (Darling leave a light on)
'Cause when the world takes me away
You are still the air that I breathe

Darling, leave a light on for me (Darling, leave a light on)
I'll be there before you close the door
I'll be all the love that you need
Darling, leave a light on for me (Darling, leave a light on)
'Cause when the world takes me away
You are still the air that I breathe
Darling, leave a light on for me (Darling, leave a light on)
I'll be there before you close the door
To give you all the love that you need
