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 bird to fly free
You ease the lost cause out of me
With your sweet hand to bring me home
I'm not alone
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
