Light On

(album: Heavy Glow - 2021)

Would you believe me now
If I told you I got caught up in a wave?
Almost gave it away

Would you hear me out
If I told you I was terrified for days?
Thought I was gonna break

Oh, I couldn't stop it
Tried to slow it all down
Crying in the bathroom
Had to figure it out
With everyone around me saying
"You must be so happy now"

Oh, if you keep reaching out
Then I'll keep coming back
And if you're gone for good
Then I'm okay with that
If you leave the light on
Then I'll leave the light on

And I keep finding out
There's just no other way
That I'm still dancing at the end of the day
If you leave the light on
Then I'll leave the light on, light on, light on, light on

And if you leave the light on
Then I'll leave the light on

And do you believe me now
That I always had the best intentions, babe?
Always wanted to stay
Can you feel me now
That I'm vulnerable in oh-so many ways?
Oh, and I'll never change

Oh, I couldn't stop it
Tried to figure it out
But everything kept moving
And the noise got too loud
With everyone around me saying
"You should be so happy now"

Oh, if you keep reaching out
Then I'll keep coming back
And if you're gone for good
Then I'm okay with that
And if you leave the light on
Then I'll leave the light on

And I keep finding out
There's just no other way
That I'm still dancing at the end of the day
And if you leave the light on
Then I'll leave the light on

And if you leave the light on
Then I'll leave the light on
And if you leave the light on
Then I'll leave the light on
