Will you leave a light on when I’m away
Or maybe just something subtle like a candle in your window pane
December 10th of last year we were hanging out
In an alley, by New Years you were spitting fire out
And I was the one to blame for things we had to drink
For the things you had to think about you and me
Will you leave a light on when I’m away
Or maybe just something subtle like a candle in your window pane
Not much but enough to guide me through the rain
Will you leave a light on when I’m away
I pulled you aside and asked you if you thought we would fail
If the future is what’s haunting us I’ll build your trust from wood and nails
I’ll always feel you when I drive home late at night
For a hundred miles back west on the interstate
We drank under the stars that night when morning came we stumbled right back
home
It doesn’t sound like much but these memories mean more than you would ever know
