[Verse 1]
I know the nights are lonely babe
There's so much rain, so far away, yeah
Know I'd rather be with you
But I gotta do what I gotta do

[Pre-Chorus]
Every minute of the day gets longer
When you're not around, baby I'm going insane
All the distance makes us stronger

[Chorus]
So baby leave a light on for me when I'm gone
Leave a light on for me all night long
Leave a light on for me 'cause I'm coming home
So baby leave a light on for me, I'll be back
Leave a light on for me, you know that
Leave a light on for me 'cause I'm coming home

[Verse 2]
Baby, without you by my side
It's hard to sleep at night, just isn't right at all
But no matter where we are
It's the same stars shining in the dark, oh woah

[Pre-Chorus]
Every minute of the day gets longer
When you're not around, baby I'm going insane
All the distance makes us stronger
And no matter what, nothing's ever gonna change
We just gotta keep on doing what we do like nobody else does it
With you is where I belong
