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
