Light On Lyrics By David Cook

    never really said too much
    afraid it wouldn’t be enough
    just try to keep my spirits up when there’s no point in grievin’
    doesn’t matter anyway
    words could never make me stay
    words will never take my place when you know i’m leavin’

    try to leave a light on when i’m gone
    something i rely on to get home
    one i can feel at night a naked light
    a fire to keep me warm
    try to leave a light on when i’m gone
    even in the daylight shine on
    and when it’s late at night you can look inside
    you won’t feel so alone

    you know we’ve been down that road
    what seems a thousand times before
    my back to a closing door and my eyes to the seasons
    that roll out underneath my heels
    and you don’t know how bad it feels
    to leave the only one that i have ever believed in

    try to leave a light on when i’m gone
    something i rely on to get home
    one i can feel at night a naked light
    a fire to keep me warm
    try to leave a light on when i’m gone
    even in the daylight shine on
    and when it’s late at night you can look inside
    you won’t feel so alone
    oh yeah

    sometimes it feels like we’ve run out of luck
    when the signal keeps on breaking up
    when the wires cross in my brain
    you’ll start my heart again
    when i come along yeah

    try to leave a light on when i’m gone
    something i rely on to get home
    one i can feel at night a naked light
    a fire to keep me warm
    try to leave a light on when i’m gone
    even in the daylight shine on
    and when it’s late at night you can look inside
    you won’t feel so alone

    try to leave a light on when i’m gone
    even in the daylight shine on
    and when it’s late at night you can look inside
    you won’t feel so alone
