Leave A Light On
When somewhere between the righteous and the rambling
Is where I find myself standing
And those flowers that you planted are too far away to see
I remember that you said you'd be watching
From that front porch by the garden
And you said you'd leave a light on... for me
Cause I need a light on
So would you leave a light on for me?
Cause this night's been so long
And it's getting the best of me
Been following feelings like they're breadcrumbs
And I'm scared 'cause I can't find them
And the forest and the trees all look the same to me
And they say that I seem centered
But inside my heart's so scattered
I need a light to shine on me
Cause I need a light on
So would you leave a light on for me?
Cause this night's been so long
And it's getting the best of me
I've been chasing the moon
Following stars
Everywhere but where you are
When you're all I need
Oh, you're all I need
Cause I need a light on
Would you leave a light on?
When I'm feeling far from home
I'm holdin' on, holdin' on
I'm holdin' on, holdin' on
When I'm feeling far from home
I'm holdin' on, holdin' on
Cause you're leaving the light on
I need a light on
Would you leave a light on for me?
Cause this night's been so long
It's getting the best of me
I've been chasing the moon
Following stars
Everywhere but where you are
When you're all I need
Oh, you're all I need
Cause I need a light on
Would you leave a light on for me?
Oh-oh
Yeah I need a light on
Would you leave a light on for me?
Is where I find myself standing
And those flowers that you planted are too far away to see
I remember that you said you'd be watching
From that front porch by the garden
And you said you'd leave a light on... for me
Cause I need a light on
So would you leave a light on for me?
Cause this night's been so long
And it's getting the best of me
Been following feelings like they're breadcrumbs
And I'm scared 'cause I can't find them
And the forest and the trees all look the same to me
And they say that I seem centered
But inside my heart's so scattered
I need a light to shine on me
Cause I need a light on
So would you leave a light on for me?
Cause this night's been so long
And it's getting the best of me
I've been chasing the moon
Following stars
Everywhere but where you are
When you're all I need
Oh, you're all I need
Cause I need a light on
Would you leave a light on?
When I'm feeling far from home
I'm holdin' on, holdin' on
I'm holdin' on, holdin' on
When I'm feeling far from home
I'm holdin' on, holdin' on
Cause you're leaving the light on
I need a light on
Would you leave a light on for me?
Cause this night's been so long
It's getting the best of me
I've been chasing the moon
Following stars
Everywhere but where you are
When you're all I need
Oh, you're all I need
Cause I need a light on
Would you leave a light on for me?
Oh-oh
Yeah I need a light on
Would you leave a light on for me?
