Got a mountain of myself built up between Between me and you (gotta leave the light on) And my contour lines are all mixed up, there's no way I could see form this point of view (gotta leave the light on) It's not enough to know that Somehow you've got to show yeah You are the answer for me I'm waiting patiently, oh I'm waiting patiently If I leave and don't come back Would you even know, if I had been gone If I leave and don't come back Would you take the time, to leave the light on Gotta leave the light on, yeah I'm running from my sleep just like a boy Who knows that he's tired (gotta leave the light on) And I know the only way to get there Is to go straight up But you know that it's higher (gotta leave the light on) It's not enough to know that Somehow you've got to show yeah You are the answer for me I'm waiting patiently, oh I'm waiting patiently If I leave and don't come back Would you even know, if I had been gone If I leave and don't come back Would you take the time, to leave the light on Gotta take a little time, don't hurry up Love will light the way Gotta read between the lines Try to not mess it up Love will light the way If I leave and don't come back Would you even know, if I had been gone If I leave and don't come back Would you take the time, to leave the light on! Gotta leave the light on, yeah
