Light On

[Verse 1]

A car crash second date

Is playing out across the table

Behind us, she can't get a word in to save herself

Glasses of sangiovese

The poor girl's being driven crazy

But it's a vital phase

To arrive at the right place

[Pre-Chorus 1]

They're only filling the void

Look at us on our high horses

Baby, they're background noise

But we are connected by forces

That have landed us in a restaurant

As I'm watching the stars in your eyes

I ask you to ask me again

To give this another try

[Chorus]

Leave the light on, I've thought this one through

Trust looks nice on me around you

Like a fitted dress and knee-high boots

A button-up shirt, midnight blue

Like how I look good on you

I know you think it too

[Verse 2]

It's October in L.A

With loves toxic and unfaithful behind us

Now we can obtain it

The haven we both craved

[Pre-Chorus 2]

When we were filling the void

Tending to flames bound to burn out

But baby, they're background noise

Pleasantly strange how it turns out

When you lean into the serene and new way

Of loving in spite of old wounds

So to ask you to ask me again

I hope you know it speaks volumes

[Chorus]

Leave the light on, I've thought this one through

Trust looks nice on me around you

Like a fitted dress and knee-high boots

A button-up shirt, midnight blue

Like how I look good on you

Leave the light on, I've thought this one through

Trust looks nice on me around you

Like a fitted dress and knee-high boots

A button-up shirt, midnight blue

Like how I look good on you

[Bridge]

All our airport goodbyes and hellos

Becoming plans to paint the kitchen cupboards yellow

Running towards hope has shown this time around I'm onto something

Now the year ahead is looking bright, I'll be home later tonight

[Chorus]

Leave the light on, I've thought this one through

Trust looks nice on me around you

Like a fitted dress and knee-high boots

A button-up shirt, midnight blue

Like how I look good on you

Leave the light on, I've thought this one through

Trust looks nice on me around you

Like a fitted dress and knee-high boots

A button-up shirt, midnight blue

Like how I look good on you

I know you think it too
