Leave a Light On

[Verse 1] "It was the coldest January," you said And that was how we got To speaking on the telephone Talking 'til our credit's gone What was that supposed to mean? You pulled it out from under me And it blew up so naturally Like candlelight and gasoline [Chorus] Oh yeah I'll wait up It won't be long I'll leave a light on [Verse 2] I saw the writing on the wall But moved too fast to read it all I'm sitting down between the flags Watching over drowning plans A moment of telepathy But time runs out eventually When reading minds is not enough There's nothing wrong with giving up [Chorus] Oh yeah I'll wait up It won't bе long I'll leave a light on Mind made up It won't bе long I'll leave a light on [Verse 3] I'm packing up the fantasy The polaroids of you and me We didn't have to wait for long A sprint is not a marathon Walking through familiar streets An episode that's on repeat Now every single road is blocked The sparks became electric shocks [Chorus] Oh yeah I'll wait up It won't be long I'll leave a light on Mind made up It won't be long I'll leave a light on
